Quicker fix to the backing plate issue. Rusted off rivets causing the backing plate to Free float and cause rubbing/squealing noises. Now this quick fix was what the customer requested. The correct way is to remove the axles, replace the seals at the same time, drill the rivets out and install new ones, WITH the possibility of replacing the backing plate as well. Expensive. Here, I just drilled thru the axle hub to get access to the rusted/broken off rivets, drilled the rivets out and installed 5/16 sheet metal screws, backing plate now seats flush against the axle tubing with no rubbing.
