The weather was great today, so decided to replace the rear springs, shockers and rear drums, I have had the parts sitting there waiting to be fitted.
While everything was off I gave the axel spring pans a buff with the grinder wire wheel attached, painted with rust paint and then sprayed underguard to help cushion the bottom of the springs, while waiting for paint to dry, I buffed all the bolts on the bench grinder, the wheelbolts needed a good clean and some spray paint too.
It's nice to see shiny new bits on the car, although I can't bring myself to throw out the old parts as they are still useable, one of the springs is a bit rusty but still worth keeping as a spare, or if someone else local needs them.
