Brackets cleaned, ground and sprayed with smooth hammerite. Need to get the wheels off so I can access the inner wing rust areas, one of these needs a plate as well. Front nearside tie down hanger is bad.
Ordered some M6 hex head flanged bolts in stainless to replace all those removed as they are pretty bad.
