Brake Job

New Rotar!
So the back rotars and brake pads needed replacing... I managed to almost fuse one of the non-existant pads to the rotar on wednesday during the drive home... why does it sound like a jet is flying over my car constantly? hahaha so the rotars and pads got replaced.
on the left is the really bad back pad... and the right is the pretty bad pad... notice a difference?
all blocked up...
um yeah... can you say the back left block gave way while rotating the tires and bleeding the lines and thats right... the car totally fell off the block and landed square on the new rotar... AWESOME.
dirty hands.
...but... the car stops on a dime now! phew!

Some really smart design engineer put a screw in the brake pad so that when they need to be replaced, it sounds like an airplane is flying over your car. Yet...

I'm impressed that you replaced the brakes yourself Mom, way to go!
