Rebuilding the front end on my 75 TR6...I've got all the pieces 
apart, more or less, and in the process of cleaning and finishing, I 
wondered if there's any consensus regarding paint, POR-15 or powder 
coating on the arms and knuckles that make up the suspension?

Also, I can clean the vertical link more easily if I take it 
completely apart, removing the steering arm and pressing out the 
spindle.  But I wonder how large a can of worms I open if I do that - 
any advice?

And finally, I was playing with the new trunnions I got. They are 
much tighter than the old ones (which didn't have much slop), but 
they are especially tight in the final position.  Not so tight that I 
can't turn it by hand, but pretty stiff.  How stiff should they be?

Thanks!
