Brakes are for pussies, oh wait that is some drag racing theory

I like breaks....kinda like this one. now back to work.

Tell work to kiss off

I'll have to come live with you for free.

Free is a four letter word my friend

should i pull the wheels off and lube the slidie thingies?

Naaaaaa, just spray the brakes and pads with a lot of WD-40. ;)

Just did rear pads on the Highlander....same thing outer pad gone and about half left on the inner. Slides were ok not great but after the wire wheel treatment and grease should be ok.
Of course i had to replace the rotor because no one bothered to tell me they were making noise until too late :rolleyes:

i stuffed a paper towel in there, just to be sure. you think wd-40 is a good idea?

this is why my wife rocks!

replacing rotors is a pain and an unnecessary expense, usually.

well i see where I rate.....I won't even bother to bring the Mesa and the head along.

My neighbors thank you

If everything is free and felt smooth I wouldn't bother, and don't wd a damn thing

Does the Highlander not have brake pad wear sensors?

face of pussy cat, heart of a killer.

the grey cat, wally, is a killing machine. nick, the siamese-mix, not so much, but she is a sweet little cat.

Yea, I know he loves his wife so WD-40 is likely not the thing to do.

thanks. yeah, it all felt good and smooth. i slid the caliper back and forth with the pads in, before pumping the brakes to push the pistons into place.

i don't even keep wd-40 in my garage. useless stuff that creates more problems than it solves, IMO.

It does work ok on the inside of a distributor that gets a lot of water on it.

and it does smell kinda cool

acetone.
