Exhaust heat
shields located on the underside of the car at the rear were showing signs
of corrosion. All rust removed & then re-painted. Boxes contain new
stone chip protection tape as described below.
Rear Bumper Stone Chip
Protection
Not all the
stone chip protection tape is available from Vauxhall any more so by buying
a long sideskirt piece I cut out the parts required to do the rear bumper
after it had been painted.
Fuel Pump Assembly
Fuel pump
assembly suffering from rust badly & that included the electrical
connections. Upper plate & pump holder parts were re-made in stainless steel
& the lower was bead blasted & powder coated. Re-assembled with
stainless steel nuts, new rubbers & new fuel filter.
Carbon Canister Bracket
Again more
rust on the carbon canister bracket, this was also re-made in stainless
steel.
Oil Cooler & Fan Parts
Similar to the
pictures shown in the floor section of this site, these pictures show work
going on with the front of the car in regard to the electrical cooling fan,
oil coolers & associated pipework.
Rear Differential
The rear diff
casing was also corroding, mainly due to the original paint flaking off from
heat build-up. All this was removed & then re-painted with rust preventing
paint. Diff fluid was also changed once re-fitted to the car.
