Plates are NW fabworks. I ground one out tonight with the die grinder. Took about 20 mins and now it fits good.

Also, working on spraying undercoating on the backsides of the bumpers, then I will paint the outsides semi gloss white.

I got the drums off and the bearing races out of the rear hubs. now its time to clean, paint, and put the new races in.
Don't forget to pack the hub bearings with grease even tho its lubed by the gear oil. Thanks for the info on the brackets too!
