have recently purchased a rear arb air locker for my mk. has some surface rust on the crown wheel. whats the best thing to clean it off with before i install it

 

[pigmk]

steel whool should do the job?

 

[OutbackMK]

If is on the crown wheel and pinion and is a little pitted get them lapped ($50-60) else if no pitting paint them with 30% phosphoric acid (sold as rust converter) then rub well with steel wool or scotchbrite, dry them off by washing with metho. If all looks ok oil it up and see how you go.

super**** do a septone brand called rust converter. its like 11 bux will last forever

No pitting and just surface, WD40 and steel wool and then a good degrease and you will be fine.
