Rotted backing plates + Powdercoated Differential Housing

Well I’m Just waiting on getting my Lsd back with new bearing and races, I managed to get everything apart except for removing the race from the pinion gear.

Also waiting on getting back my rear axle from the bead blasters.

I’ve had no luck from the dealerships or online finding a new set of backing plates. Hate to put all new hardware together just to slap it on some swiss cheese mounts. Pathfinders in the pick n pull yards are usually more rotted out than what I already have. Local stealership tells me it’s a discontinued item,

keeping the dust out of my drum brakes is all I want, anyone ever have any luck finding a suitable replacement?8c41d4dc2bc2a3b1c114e81f7a0ca40a.jpg8eb5e8b1f66ac2ed784dc2dd5b9b8241.jpgc08a3b04f631d39ddea86d2f5adc5456.jpg71c4d3a32db38451ca4c8af2f8330920.jpgea9447ddf6d09a2a1b2e1a700594db17.jpg

 Just did a quick shop on eBay, that proved to be useless! Maybe try signing up to eBay australia, since Thailand has a huge aftermarket parts for the WD21, you might be able to track something down there.

finally got the axle coated, I marred up the flange when I was separating the diff, polished it up with some memory cloth still waiting to have the new bearings and races installed

was unable to replace my backing plates so I bead blasted them as best I could and threw on some gloss black powdercoat I also did the rear axle hubs, taping off carefully where the bearing and seals sit, just getting them pressed in and mounting them when I get the new seals and bearings.
