TR 3 stone guards For the last 2 years I have been immersed in trying to ma=
ke myself into a reasonable facsimile of a British panelbeater. These alumi=
num panels would be a good beginners project. To make them you would make p=
atterns to cut the metal to and contour patterns to get the right amount of=
 curve in the panel. The panel is shaped with a wood mallet and sandbag the=
n planished or smoothed out =C2=A0either by hand or on an English wheel. I =
guess .050 or .063 metal would work. If you interested you can go to youtub=
e to pick up basic skills working with a hammer and dolly. Sounds like a fu=
n project!

The Loctite website for threadlocker red (271) "It is only removable once
cured by heating up parts to 500 F".
Which is udder rubbish. I use it quite a bit and have never had to heat
parts to remove them. I have found that it is stronger the loctite blue
(242) but not by a whole heck of a lot. In theory a thorough cleaning
should improve performance; however, I haven't noticed any great
improvement. When in doubt I always use a NEW distorted / deformed lock nut=
.

The specs vary all over the place, depending on things like whether the thr=
eads are cad plated or not.=C2=A0 But if you dig in to the
TDS, the maximum difference (for an unplated 3/8" NC bolt) is only about 12=
 ft-lb:

00D61E/$File/271-EN.pdf

The difference becomes even smaller if you take into account the long term =
performance of 271 (red) vs 243 ("oil resistant" blue)
under both exposure to oil (271 loses 25% of its strength over 1000 hours; =
243 actually gains about 15%); and operation at 100C (a
typical engine temperature) where again 271 loses strength and 243 does not=

4D92EA/$File/243-EN.pdf

243 is also supposedly more tolerant of minor contamination of the threads.=
=C2=A0 Since no one will ever mistake my garage for a clean
room, that seems like a big plus to me.

They have fairly deep compound curves, which might be tricky for someone wi=
th no experience beating aluminum (or using an English
wheel).

The new ones I got from TRF had the curves right, they just had a lot of ex=
tra metal around the edges that had to be trimmed away.

You are right on about the stone guards. The repros don't fit anything like=
 the originals. I found that much trimming is needed, but I got mine to loo=

Reusing original parts should definitely be considered.=20
In a matter of a few hundred miles, the new ones got all pitted and dented =
anyway. They look perfectly used now.=20
If it's going to be a trailer queen, by all means, make the repros work. Bu=

They have fairly deep compound curves, which might be tricky for someone wi=
th no experience beating aluminum (or using an English
wheel).

The new ones I got from TRF had the curves right, they just had a lot of ex=
tra metal around the edges that had to be trimmed away.

 about others, but my experience with the aftermarket TR3 stone guards (esp=
ecially the large ones which fit over the rear fenders) has been very disap=
pointing. Badly made and frustratingly hard to fit. So when I started the l=
atest restoration on a CA car with minimal rust (lots of other problems, bu=
t rust wasn?t one of them !) I decided I would try to salvage the stone gua=
rds. They were heavily pitted and dented and I thought I was wasting my tim=
e, but I started off hammering out the dents and then I used a grinder to l=
evel all the pits and scratches. I followed with 80 grit, then 150, 320 and=
 600. Then aluminum polish and finally a good waxing. I have to say, the en=
d result was really good ? and they fit ! <br clear=3D"none"><br clear=3D"n=
one"><br clear=3D"none"><br clear=3D"none">Having said that, I guess I spen=
t most of a day on the 2 large guards, so this approach would make little s=
ense for a restoration shop or someone charging by the hour. But for someon=
e like me with time on my side, I saved $100 not buying new and I now have =
guards which will fit. <br clear=3D"none"><br clear=3D"none"><br clear=3D"n=
one"><br clear=3D"none">I learned a lot from an older guy in a restoration =
shop who routinely threw out the old and replaced with new. Maybe there was=
 a day when ?new? really was better, but the more of these cars I do (and I=
 am now on number 13) the more I try to keep whatever I can and only replac=
e where absolutely necessary. <br clear=3D"none"><br clear=3D"none"><br cle=
