The ones that attach to the axle? Most people chisel them off anyway!

yes there the ones! i know the back ones are spot welded on but the front ones are so far gone i cannot tell whether they are a separate cup that can be bought or part of the axle

Think they are welded too. Whip 'em off!!

I take it you don't really needed them? I am missing both the top and bottom one on the drivers side rear so I home it's safe with out them. Think they have rusted away just like everything else on the disco.
