Finished painting the dust shield back plates today.  Case hardened the brake adjuster pivots.

Concentrating on completion of rear axle dust shields.  Fabrication completed on the 4/8, primed on the 5/8 and sprayed first coat of black today.  Also finished machining brake adjuster pins (top picture below).  These need to be case hardened.

Stages in fabricating  dust shields:

New dust shields now have conical sections welded in,  just awaiting  laser-cut centres from Lakeland steel then they can be finished.  Started machining new brake adjuster pins today for the rear scissors adjusters.
