Waiting to sandblast
The front end parts are awaiting sandblasting. Some, like the axle tubes, are too big for the rear of the car, so I can't take them until a Saturday when the business is open and able to receive the parts. The rest of the pieces have been in the back of the car since Monday. Too wet to deliver them Monday, Tuesday they were not open when I got there just after 1610hrs, Today was my late day so couldn't get there. Maybe tomorrow??? Virtually no chance of getting the bits back Friday, so this weekend will be a complete loss for front end work. Expected to be raining anyway.
The last piece to get off the hubs was the old grease seal (National 35070). I managed to get both away with virtually no damage to the seal itself. The minor scratches would buff out easily, but it's getting replaced so I don't think I will bother with that!
