Front Axle is Completed

As you can see in my last post on the front axle it was in poor condition. Externaly the paint was flaking, it was heavily rusted and the seals had leaked mixing the knuckle grease, diff oil and mud/water etc into a horrid concoction - there was also 30 years of grease and leaked brake fluid all over the place too!


The above two pictures show the axle stripped with undercoat. Didnt need to strip the diff luckily. 
Knuckle housing installed with new bearings and the control arm.
Packed full of grease brake backing and spindle attached.

Axle painted, new rotors, hubs, wheel bearings installed.
