I had, had to think of the part swaps that were done in these Photos.

There will be more, to include all rotors, front bearing, hubs taken from a junk yard find.
The complete rear Delta-link system, in new condition, which allows me to swap the '93 rear hubs from four-lug, to five-lug.

Bottom line to this idea of painting remains the same.

The front caliper brackets on my Wagon are painted with a quality color, and high rust/temperature inhibitive. Color only on the mounting brackets. Still looks good. It was a metallic grey.
No Red. My preference.
There will be updates, since all vehicles may be swapping some parts.

I will have some new, SKF, and FAG, quality four lug hubs for sale from storage, new-in-box. For anyone with a '93 850.
I will post.
