Lol, nope. Gold.


I started on the brakes last night. My fear was right on the rear drivers' caliper. Last year when I bled the brakes before DGRR I couldnt get the bleeder valve loose but didnt have time to muck with it. Even now, I used vice grips (three kinds), lots of penetrating lube, heat and finally - an air hammer. Its not budging. Go northern cars.

Every bolt on the entire suspension and brakes, etc has got a nice coat of Massachussetts charm on it!! I did get everything off for now though, all the calipers, old rotors. New brake lines are hung just not installed yet.

Luckily I have access to a parts car w/ good calipers, but I have to drive down 1.5 hours to get them. This should be wrapped up Sunday.

I'll post pics after its done on Sunday night....
