new brakes

Did a brake upgrade this past weekend, rotors, pads, lines, flush and bleed, repacked front bearing grease. Only issues were getting the bearing retainer off, needs some special tool I did not have. tapped/spun it out with a screw driver, carefully but seemed to work ok. and the nut on the 5th line was loose from goodridge and was leaking, once I tightened it up, all is well.

Big improvement. much more confidence in them now.

Sweet! How long did it take you to replace all the rotors and brakes? I just bought a set and hope to get them replaced soon after I get them home.

it took about 5 hours, and I hade a master mechanic helping, actually he did most the work. he's a great friend of mine, helps me all the time.

Ah crap. Well I guess that means it'll be a weekend long project for me! Woohoo!
