John,
REALLY BAD IDEA.
The nylon dust shield is only a $15 piece and is available from all the usual sources. If
the angle drive seizes and the shaft 'drills' the dust shield (turning the square hole
round), this is a safety feature. There is always the possibility of being able to clean
and lubricate the angle drive and salvage it. With a metal cap, you are guaranteed of
destroying the angle drive and facing a $240 replacement.
