Hi Guys,

Has anyone found an easy way to paint the inside of the rear torsion tube.

I figured that while it was appart it wouldnt hurt to do this.

Cheers

brush on a stick should do the trick
get a plastic brush n bend to 90 deg attach to a stick
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

I go the rust proof direction as to me paint will only lock in the rust that's already there, even surface rust will continue to gro when the moisture is locked in. And I use rust prevention that does not dry and also seal in the rust/moisture.

Were you thinking about a POR 15 type process, fish oil, or something else?
