Back to the shop (finally)

I have some progress to report. I have removed the right rear brake, axle and hub. I have three broken studs on this side so they need to be replaced. I will replace all of them because they are all the same age and condition as the three I lost. Surprise was the studs were welded to the drum. Finding a new drum easy order from Rock Auto, hubs well I bought four off eBay one is too big. A pair I found fit and a single one I have to check still. After four spindles for the front I bought several. I will check the other single one to see if it fits. If the other side is good I will keep the pair for future use. I painted the backing plate and after I make sure I have all the required parts I will assemble it. I have been a little sidetracked by my welder so again eBay to the rescue. I will talk about that in a separate post. After the physical change of the brakes at each wheel I will replace the brake lines and master cylinder. I also have a new gas tank to install.
