Front hubs

Now the front wishbones are hanging in position, the front hubs need some attention before fitment.

These were sourced early in the build from Ebay and were in need of a good clean before being re-painted with some black hammerite,


Out with the wire brush attachments on the electric drill and away we go cleaning up the hubs and removing general grim, dirt, surface rust which had accumulated over the years.

The wheel studs will need replacing with longer versions so I intend to apply the same methodology of removal that I did with the rear drive shafts and use a ball joint splitter and liberal doses of WD40 to break the seal between wheel stud and hub.
