I have to say I’m impressed with how far a gallon of POR-15 goes. I’m still using the original gallon that I used on the underbody, floors and front axle, and there’s still plenty left!

The replacement 7/16” bolt on my old XJ’s front axle. This Jeep had a drop bracket for the stock track bar, which was later removed to install an adjustable track bar.
