    Rust cancer treatments ???

    I will give that a try, but I was thinking more along the lines of removal, then I could (cost dependent) have them re-chromed.

    Rust cancer treatments ???

    So, I have been sitting here quietly in the background watching this process, and wondering, rust = good, paint = better, how about rusty chrome? The rear fender handles are something I have been wondering how to "fix"? Any thoughts?

    L175/1500 Trans-Clutch

    I am a little concerned and a little confused? My transmission input shaft, both the Old and New, Do Not go into the flywheel. There is only about 5/16" of material that could go into the "non-existant" pilot bearing. And the hole in the flywheel is too small to accept even the shaft only, even...
