Whilst waiting for the shell to be shot blasted we got on with mechanical work. I opted for 8.4" disks derived from a GTS. Naturally it was completely rebuilt with new Timken bearings, ball joints, new caliper pistons and seals. The existing disks were still of a good enough thickness to re-use with a light skim.
The brake equalizer was re-sleeved and fitted with new seals.

In hindsight no she wasn't so bad. Still we had a vision.......
