8.8 swap
Sandblasted and painted up attaching hardware and dataplates for the axle. The bolts i ran through a wire wheel to polish em up after blasting them. Then i sprayed them with CorBan 35 by zip chemicals. This is clear and gives them a bit of a color tone and will keep rust off them. Used in aviation to protect from corrosion it dries like a hard laquer, but will wipe right off with solvents like MEK, laquer thinner etc.
Figured out what the little boots were for on the parking brake sprags. One of mine was frozen up badly. I had to soak it in penetrating oil and work the pieces free in a bench vise. When they go back together they will get Corban 35 and a small amount of Aeroshell 22 grease on the pivot points. I am headed to the ford dealer for new boots today after work.
