Paint and adjustable front axle

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Adjustable front axle painting, what to prime and paint?
Wide front 1948 C. I will be disassembling it because tie rod end rubber is shot.

Paint outside of outboard tube (usually a solid bar of steel)? Seems reasonable.
Prime/ Paint inside the center tube? How? With a mop or sponge?
If a tight fit, don't paint anything where tubes overlap?
If not, then what, grease up the inside of tube? Just paint outside after reassembly?

I guess same questions could apply to the tie rods.
Thanks
