    Heatshields

    Has anyone done away with all the heatshield's over the back diff etc?
    Mine are toast and there is so much more room without then Damn stuff!

    Does it cause any heat/melting issues?

    Most have fallen away by now and not been replaced. Plus it stops build up of dirt/moisture that could result in what you've just fixed.

      I have replaced mine with a fairly decent set when i had to do my rust repairs - my original ones crumbled in my hands as I guess your did too
      I didn't want all the cavity wax I just sprayed in melting, but to be fair I am sure it would be find without. I always intended to one day make a fibreglass mould of the originals and then beat some new ones out of nice stainless sheet.... that was 3 years ago
