Subject: RE:Brakes 101 by 1986pacecar on 2006/3/13 21:50:30 Just wanted to thank those who helped me with the brake post. This past weekend I finally worked up enough courage to tackle the front pads and rotors. I can't say it was easy but somehow I managed to get them installed and working :D I managed to snap a caliper pin bolt because I overtorqued it out of ignorance. Having no previous experience with a torque wrench, I keep listening for a click on the 22-24 pound bolts but apparently my torque wrench doesn't make an audible click on lower settings, so here is this dummy torqueing away until SNAP :oops: Good thing I had extra bolts and pins. :lol: Well next weekend I'm hoping to get to the rears and hopefully learn from my mistakes. Thanks again. |
