Things to remove from frame.

In the process of removing the last couple things from my 6x6 4wd frame before sending it off for sand blasting and powder coating. Anyone have thoughts on if I should remove the bump stop brackets and rear shock brackets? Worried i might be just headed off the deep end and removing stuff that unnecessary.

Rear bump stop bracket

Rear upper shock mount

Removed rear leaf spring mounts and grinded off previous owners add ons.

Your bump stop bracket looks kind of used up anyway, so I don't think you're out anything getting that out of the way. I see no reason to remove the shock mount. Tape up the shaft real well with duct tape as you don't want that blasted or coated, but the rest looks like it could benefit from a clean up and powder coat. my 2c.
