did your overflow tank used to be a bed pan?

It looks like a urinator, from a hospital

It came wif teh car. I think it was a port o pot.

I want to install a differnt one but not much room with teh twin fans. I may weld me up a nice stainless tube style at work,

I have stainless one, mouted it on the "frame" rail by the battery, it works but I drive my car 2 days a year so dont trust anything I say,

Im just happy that this is Page 2 so i dont have to load all those pix of your lube

I did. I just installed all new breaks. It wasnt black though. It was a little dark.

It's supposed to be clear or honey colored really

lookin real good, how many cans or paint and clear did you use total? mine need redone if i dont end up buying new wheels

 

[5.0Droptop]

1 1/2 cans of paint. I didnt do the clear. Just a couple coats of paint and thay had a nice shine.

 

[SteedaGT9150]

thanks man

 

[5.0Droptop]

No problem

Shake the cans really good and very often. Do thin coats at a time untill you get a feel for it. The metallic in the paint likes to pool.
