Took off the old bull bar and took my angle grinder with a wire brush on it and took it apart and put three coats of primer on it and three coats of black on it. It was so humid it was tacky 2 days later. Still have to touch it up where I layed it down and it stuck to the cardboard.

Got my old seats out and put in the new ones I got from an 94 extended cab. There okay, but not to much room because of my speaker box.

84, You might want to take it apart if it is older and clean it out. When I took mine apart there has about a 1 cup of rust in each tube. I t was nasty. I had to bang it out.
