The pile of shame just got bigger

Post by chanlon1 » Sun Jan 14, 2024 5:47 pm

So I decided this morning to put the new pagid discs and pads I bought last year (remember that really cheap ECP deal I found???) on.
I always knew the front left caliper was sticking, but now realize its seized. So the new pads and discs won't fit as is. Had to put the old ones back on.

Was going to get a refurb kit, but decided to just buy a pair of new calipers.

So the to-do pile of shame now sits at:
New springs x4
New shocks x4
Front and rear discs
Front and rear pads
Rocker cover gasket
Start motor
Front calipers (probably will do new rears aswell)
