Popular Post h67st 1,259 Posted February 21 Popular Post Share Posted February 21 My single axle donor truck is an H67LT so it's got aluminum suspension brackets and air tanks. I cleaned the tanks thoroughly (inside and out) and pressure tested them. I used a jitterbug with 320 paper and then wet sanded with 600, 800, and 1000; then polished with Mothers. They're still scarred from decades of hanging under a truck but I like them anyway. I'm not going for a showroom new look, I like a truck that has some character to it. 16 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Freightrain 2,531 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Just like my aluminum air start tank. Looks good from 10 ft which is good enough. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large...................... Charter member of the "MACK PACK" Link to post Share on other sites
