New front rotors with freshly powder-coated front hubs. New bearings and seals. I had to go with 18mm clamp-nuts and thrust washers due to the late-style Bilstein struts.

Fuchs were restored by Harvey. I asked for this finish which is slightly brighter on the lip. The rim is more frosted, and the center simi-gloss black. If I remember, Harvey said this was on original style used on 15" in mid '70's. These are 7x16.

I really like the look and just set one on the hub to see what it looks like.

Looks great to me.

What did you rebush the rear trailing arms with? They look like rubber.
