Chris Wilson Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Cast iron, nothing special. You can tell by taking a grinding disc to one, by the colour and intensity of the sparks, and by dropping one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 It was a scrapper, I did nearly drop a new one, and have the scars to remember catching the damned thing by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops, I remember the parts guy carrying over the box to the counter at Mr T's. Heavy lump of metal to try catching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 They're not all cast, are they Chris? I was sure at least some (most?) of the aftermarket ones are just plain steel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
