Two-component top coat paint
Center tube was almost rust free, only light sanding needed before two coats of 2k-paint, color and lacquer
It's a feckin' miracle if this get rost again! :-) The tube was so pretty that it's a shame to put in back to the car.
Next I cleaned and painted torsion bars and longitunal arms. Light red color of bars changed to black.
The iron parts of rear brake calipers were cleaned in electrolysis (including pistons!), as they were in thick rust. Otherwise the assembly is aluminum, didn't bother cleaning that. New seals were fitted to calipers. Backplates were also cleaned in electrolysis.
DIY dummy shock absorber
Assembled new bearings and seals to longitunal arms using vise. Added grease nipples to arms. The location is 28mm from the inner edge. According my measurements there is only one millimeter space between the plastic sleeve and stub pin. I hope that's enough. We'll see.
Washers #72
were so badly corroded that they had to be renewed.
