1972 Canadian H-Code 340 Dart Swinger Special Resto - Finally started!
Thanks L8r, I wired brushed them a bit with a brass wire brush to take the loose stuff off then dropped them in a bucket of Evaporust for 24 hours then scrubbed them with a plastic bristle brush and rinsed them off with clean water and dried them with some air and this was the difference,
When I tore them down thou there was additional rust on the mating surfaces and especially behind the rubber boots and in the channels that those boots seat in,
So it was back in the pail for another 24 hours and some extra scrubbing cleaned them up then I ran a diamond hone over the the face of these machined surfaces to clean them up and remove some of the fine pitting, unfortunately I didn't take a picture of that final cleaning, then reassembled them.
