It was a busy afternoon in the shop today. The rear brake backing plates were primed then onto making a bunch of seals and installing a number of seals. Front tie rod got new outer dust seals. I made them out of neoprene. I used the dished washer to stamp out new ones in the press. The original internal felt seals were cleaned and re installed as they were in great shape. What a job getting the tie rod sealing plate installed. Thankfully the pulled could be used as a pusher to compress internal spring.
