				Front end overhaul - what finish for the hubs?
			 
 
			I have been admiring the suspension rebuilds, learning a lot.
 I am sandblasting & por-15ing the struts, A arms & carrera front bar, doing the ER rubber front a arm bushings, HD bilsteins, new bearings, trying to zinc pate the calipers and hardware and pondring the best finish for the front hubs.
 
 Just tonight, i have removed the front top strut mounts, planning on gong witht he ER "Sport" rubber replacements, and installing the new er bushings in  POr 15 and POR chasis second coated bearing mounts.
 
 So, I am sneaking up on the front hub rebuild, curious about what finish is best for the aluminum hubs.  I have blasted the hubs fairly clean and will do what ever cleaning is needed and am at a bit of a loss at to the best, ( brake fluid resistand finsih, hopeing for a black, heat emitting finish).
 
 I have 4 new Zimmerman zinc coate rotors, which I am thinking about dipping in Caswell's  Black Chromate finish.
 
 Once again, i am  out there in trreratory i  am unfamiliar with and hopeing for a bit of help.
 
 
 thanks,
 chris
