I recently stripped the front hubs off my 2001 '100' Auto (4.2 diesel) VX intending to replace the dust shields.
However I found a second tin pressing mounted on top of the original dust shield and using the same bolts.
The second pressing appears to incorporate a rim that protects the oil seal at the rear of the hub.
My Roughtrax replacement shields were flat and I didn't see any other parts advertised.
It can be seen here:
The oil seal protector doesn't appear on the parts diagrams for the '100' .
Are they from something else ??
Were they only fitted from new and not continued with ??
Does anyone know please ??
Needless to say, they didn't survive .
Cheers.
