Well, my plans are to rebuild the brakes, replace wheel bearings, wheel seals, TeraFlex U-bolt Conversion Kit, an Aussie locker, and paint it

I am also have plans to do a Teraflex HD SYE w/ a front DS, C-rok inner steering plate and a steering box brace.

And after all that and if funds allow, a HD diff. cover, an adj. track bar and a beefy tie rod.

So what did you use to clean it all up with

A wire wheel that attaches to a drill. Worked like a charm except for some of the tighter areas I couldn't get to.
