Re: What Type Of Paint Over Imron

Hey all!

I am going to repaint the stripes on my 1990 Baja. I assume they were originally painted with Imron. What paint would be the best choice to paint over the stripes?

Thanks,
Scott

Re: Steam/Smoke coming from port motor?

I had just replaced both impellers on both motors at the beginning of the season, they were both trashed. I also dug out the broken impellers and they are all accounted for!

Re: questions on electric brakes

I have had a 1995, 1998, 1999 Dodge ram 1500 with towing package. All of them had the 4 wires required to hook up the electric brakes under the dash. Real easy job to wire them up.
