UnderBelly Tire damage

[Guest]

Will finally got some decent weather and was able to get the plates put in the wheel wells and repack and inspect the brakes. While repacking the bearing I couldn’t believe how much grease was in these hubs. All four seals showed grease getting by. But only one wheel had some grease on the magnet. Thank goodness.
was glad to get these plates installed. My mind still isn’t settle on putting screws through the bottle on the slide side. Even though I used 3/4” screws I’m scared it’s going to get into the slide floor. I think I’m going to hook the batterie back up and slide it out to make sure. Am I worrying for nothing?

Thin gauge metal plates,coated with por15 (best stuff ever) sealed with flex seal and then finished with a bed liner coat.

This is really nice work! I also like your sealing method as well.

Nice job. If I may ask what gauge or thickness metal did you end up using?. On edit - which por15 product did you use the runs coating or chassis top coat or other https://www.amazon.com/s?k=por+15&hv...l_6kux01ussg_e

I used 10gauge from Home Depot. Here’s the link for the coating. A little bit goes a long way.
