71 4X4 Frame off Restoration

[DWilbur]

Got some more work done on the d60 axle today. The break pistons and calipers were very dirty in side so I took them apart and cleaned them up. I used my air compressor to remove the pistons and the first one almost took my head off when it shot out of the caliper and went flying across the garage. The 2nd one I turned it over to push it out with air on the bench and it was a lot safer. Got the axle housing painted too. should be able to start putting it back together end of next week. I had to ordered 2 new spindles both of them looked like metal chunks were galling up the bearing and seal surfaces.
