Hey Mike, Luis,Raul!
Bin awhile since I posted, so I thought I give ya's an update.
Well last night I got's bored with TV and said to myself -(Self lets do the rear brake job you been to lazy to do).
I've had the Pads for 3 months now and it's not like they needed to be changed, but I had done the Fronts recently.
Buy the way the Pads came from Aussie!!!
Did the drivers side in 25mins to include a light sanding on the Rotor.
Now for the fun part!!!!
At 1:AM I was still pounding on the f.in Caliper and still can not lodge it loose. Went thru a can of Penitraiting Oil and still no comie offie.
Started on it this morning at 6AM and it just slid off. Talk about luck! I guess the oil took awhile to do it's thing.
The Dowel Pin and Hole in the Caliper was rusted pretty bad. Honed, sanded and geased her up. Good as new.
Lesson to be learned!
(Don't Get Bored And Talk To Yourself).
Hope things are going well for Youins

Wellll It's Like 2:30AM out here on The 4th in the the West and we are out of BEER & M-80's (Not to mention some other Light Up Your Life Gooodie's) and I got's me a CLOWN with a 65 Mustang that wants to Play. Not a Great Idea since his old lady and 3 of us have been trying to get his keys from him!!!!
Too Fucked UP to drive he say's as he keeps falling on the ground. I Wannna Race!
For now we have him seat belted to the Passanger Side and do not plan on giving directions Home till Sunrise.
Oh Well (Just another Party & A Great Day To Enjoy IT)! I think I could have beat his *** with my Machine even though That Mustang has over 500HP and about $15K invested in it. So whats wrong with dreaming???????
Back to the real world! Round & Round.
Gonna be working on the Ignition Sat= like finish up on MSD Hookup and see how well I can screw that project up????
One good thing is that after owning 6 of these 1st Gen's you never get bored.
Have a Great Weekend All
