Piece of metal strapping makes a perfect grease scoop to clean out the hubs.
Our dearly departed dog helping me out today. Bowls are perfect for filling the hubs with cleaner (100LL) to degrease. It then took me 2 hours driving around town to find a garage that can still turn rotors !
Photo for the file, Kelsy Hayes (KH) caliper pin rubbers. Part #80140
Bearings, caliper pins, retainers, etc all cleaned up for repack and reassembly.
A new one on me, BOWER bearings. Googling shows they are now NTN.
Inners both Bower's as well, not Timkens.
Thought I'd tackle the rear brake hose, even though I came to the realization that "weep" around the splitter block on the axle was not actually brake fluid but 50 years of "mist" from the axle vent bolt.
I actually got the line apart without twisting it off and then removed the flex hose from the axle splitter. I'm under here and having a very hard time keeping my brain from kicking in to restoration mode vs driver.
DO NOT buy this rear brake hose for a '70 Plymouth, it is the correct length, line to hose thread is correct, but the hose to axle block thread is WRONG.
Too small... Not happy. Now I have to locate and wait for the correct hose.
