I am powder coating a blaster head to toe. I am in the process of prepping the a-arms and I see the ball joints are one with the a-arm. I took the rubber boot off but does anyone know whats in that ball joint cup? I will be heating this thing up to around 400 degrees and I don't want to wreck anything in there.
 
if you get them rubber things off, its a straight pain in the ass to get them back on, took me over an hour a to get them both back on properly.
Not quite sure whats in the stocker but its prolly somthing along one of these things. click the pick on the bottom.

Thanks for the input. I just decided to paint them. It will be much easier anyway to just mask off the ball joints then to try and strip the factory finish up to them. I will post pics of this thing soon. It's candy red and black from top to bottom and is gonna look sick when finished.
