:funny: We are now. I thing our modified piston compressor is still in my car.

[tedness]

just pads i think. im not sure about rotors. i guess i could save money by ordering parts and doing self/aided install.

[SloNLo_350]

I would (I'd be willing to bet that Brett would also) be willing to help or even do it for you, for the cost of a couple Pizza's. But I haven't eaten all day, so I am all about food right now!

I'll help. I'm sure we could knock it out pretty quick [/crosses fingers].

[SloNLo_350]

no it should be easy now that we know the proper procedure (and what those little clips do).

[TylerGT]

Yeah, I asked him for the tool to compress the piston in the caliper and he gave me a brake pad separator.

Not to make you guys feel like total dumbasses but brakes are about the easiest thing to change on a car. Sorry.

its ok. we knew they were dumbasses before this post.

[BreBar21]

If we were given the right tool in the first place, it would have gone A LOT smoother. Once we got the tool, we finished it up in probably a hour.

[ju015dd]

brakes are pie, with the right tools. :blink: and rotors even easier!

I had import auto redo my rear brakes a couple months ago. The piston wasnt retracting so I was driving around with my brakes dragging. They had to replace the calipers, came with pads (loaded calipers) and remachined the rotors...Guess what..Its doing it again now. Squeeking ALL the damn time...well almost all the time...does it on and off and theres NO pattern to it at all so I dunno...Im thinking maybe its the EQ block..the bad part is that will have to be fixed and I need new pads and rotors remachined AGAIN.....Then again maybe it could just be trash in there fauling it all up and I just need new pads.....Im looking around for some slotted cross drilled performance rotors with some new calipers and pads maybe but the downisde is I dont wanna fux0r them up offroading

When we gonna finalize the hotel arrangement? :secret:

[SloNLo_350]

How about we have a seperate thread for the shootout... that or just split this one. It is a little early to be thinking about it, but we haven't had a problem just showing up at the Fort Valley Inn and just getting a number of rooms before. And we HAVE to stay there again... that place is the shit. I was sure we'd get kicked out, or at least yelled at last time, but no one even came out to say anything to us!!
