If you're using MM hydraulic backplates you shouldn't have to take off as much metal as I've done for the Girling backplates but, as Ruiradh says, you do need to form the straight sides. . Mine were converted for hydraulic in about 1960 (so no, good, RN axle was harmed during my recent efforts!!) so I started from where you're going to. I think I might have a photo somewhere of how they were.

Yep, found one. This is the axle ends converted to take the MM hydraulic backplates offered up to the Girling ones.
