I am restoring a John Deere 60 and I was wondering what color I should paint my rear axles or should I leave them bare metal. Any thoughts would be great. Thanks in advance John

You can also clean to bare metal and then clear coat them. Better than grease and looks better than black paint.

Its probably a safe bet that the only paint that got on the axles at the factory was over spray of the green or the yellow, or both!

Personally, I would leave them the bare metal after cleaning them up using fine sand paper. If the tractor is going to sit outside a lot or you live where there is high humidity, then I would be tempted to paint them black.

The farmall guy confused me when I tried to understand what he was talking about! I guess I am not very smart.

Do you mean the part Of the axles that are in the housing, or the part that you can see(the hub of the axle)?
