I use zinc rich primer for steel. Great protection and you can weld without removing it.

Oh sorry I misread your prior post.  Thanks!

Thanks for the tips, guys.  Made a deal with Woody for the part.  Can't wait for it to arrive!

Glad to have been able to help.  🙂 

Super!

I certainly will.  It'll be a while though, package tracking estimates delivery in December...

Cost was $100 including shipping.  The part itself was about $66.  (Ish... exchange rate being what it is.)

Alright so the part arrived today!

Yeah the tracking info on the shipping company's website estimated delivery for December.  I guess that was wildly inaccurate... but I ain't complainin'!

I  wouldn't either.

It looks really good!
