Re: A '54 named Busty
I’m glad you found a place to hide from the heat in your wiring room.
Those are just dust shields correct? Is there any “real” reason to run them? I’ve removed several damaged (bent, rusted, etc) ones in the past and never noticed any difference in braking performance or longevity. Of course the vehicles were considerably faster after shedding the extra weight.

the ones on the second gen Camaros have rubber pressed into them so the rubber prevents dust, dirt, and debris from entering the back bearing on the spindle, and again I have seen rotors with the rubber covers on them that do the same, but some of the newer replacement ones do not come with the rubber on the rotors leaving the bearings exposed dirt + water = bad for the bearings Last edited by Gregski; 08-17-2020 at 12:51 PM. |
