Re: Brakes

If you are on a tight budget you can just buy the rebuilt kit for the calipers and rebuild them yourself. It consist of one rubber o ring. I bought my kit at orileys for about $6.00. You will need a air compressor and PLEASE watch your figures. DO NOT Get anywhere close with your hands and figures to the caliper when you apply air to pop the cylinder out It will come out with enough force to hurt you.(Put a piece of 2x4 in the caliper where the rotor would be before you apply air this is real important to stop the plugger from flying out of the housing) I watched a utube video and it showed how to do it with a small piece of 2x4. very easy . My brakes work fine now. Rebuilt calipers are not expensive if you choose to buy them.
