Battery hold down rods

#1

Post by msteuer »

I have been cleaning up the battery area in the back of the oil tank and I pulled the battery hold down rods to address some corrosion. I was under the impression that the rods were factory supplied with a parkerized finish. After doing a little clean up I noticed a few spots with gloss black paint firmly attached.
If someone knows the facts I would appreciate it so that I can reapply the correct finish. We are talking about a Police 64FL to narrow down the details.
