Hawklord Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I have a steel EN8 Sumobar track rod to fit and wondering whether it needs to be painted or not to stop it rusting. Does anyone have one fitted who can offer an opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 The normal (rather than stainless) ones come electro plated, or at least mine did. They just gain that slightly greyed look after a while. Painting them won’t harm though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmmv Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I'd put some ant-seize of some kind on the trackrod threads. Those jam nuts get very tight after they have been on a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Personally, I’d paint them, but I don’t like bright shiny stuff under cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
