Oh haha sorry evo tuner didn't know if u were being a dick and gonna say better not be doing in the house or something. It's really easy, parts need to be stripped and clean, buy the Eastwood powder gun and powder, put parts on an over rack attach the grounding cable to that, spray on powder and place in the preheated oven at 450, check parts every five min or so until all the parts look wet. Turn oven to 400 for 20 min, then turn oven off and open the door and let the parts cool slowly. That's it. Not really too much of a learning curve until you are multi coating

Sounds like the same setup I used to have. Eastwood hobby gun, free oven off craigslist and a toaster oven from the thrift shop for smaller parts. Air compressor and an inline water filter. Worked decent enough, but I got rid of it all after realising how much of a mess it made in my garage. There is still pink powder in there from Mark's valve covers to this day :) lol

Anyone have the trans bearing and gear removal tool I can borrow? I am ready to start tearing down for syncros hub sliders a new shift fork and whatever else I'll need

Lol halon so far the mess is worth it. The prep is the only crap part of it imo

Yeah, if you don't mind the mess it's all good. I did it for a few years, and finally just got to the point that I decided I was done with it. Everything in my garage had a layer of "dust" on it haha.

Prep definitly sucked too. I did chemical stripping which gets to messy and old real quick. And when that failed, I'd have to resort to finding someone with a blaster or have it blasted at work.
