Well what started out as a simple front and rear brake job is costing me a bunch.
Went to replace front pads and rotors, (along with shocks) and rear pads (along with shocks) only......not a bad way to spend the evening.............................WRONG..........Now, new rear rotors, outer bearings, seals, and rear caliper brackets. Not to mention a new pin and bolt. $$$$$$$$$$$
Glad I have a hoist and can do this stuff myself. Rant done LOL

You got it LOL
Back together and good to go............well almost...........left rear parking brake was a little tight so I backed it off a little. Need to back it off some more, getting just a hint of brake smell.

Oh boy. I had a lot of brake nightmares with mine the first few years with slide pins and calipers. I went to napa and bought the loaded eclipse calipers they sell and never looked back. So far I have had zero brake issues since.
