    Hawk brake pads and rotors.

    I just had the rear pads installed at Dealership. I'm off on Thursday for yet another Government sponsored holiday so I did not have the time to do it today. They charged me 1.5 hrs to service and change front pads. $169+tx =190 and change. WTF, to me this seems little excessive.

    Thanks Eddie. My line on the drum has a 'heat sheath' on the first line so I will for go the duct tape. This also serves as my visual. However I'm going to try the criss cross method. I would like a certificate upon completion for Recovery 101! God I just got sucked in, didn't I.

    I don't know if I should have started this on a new thread, this one has gone a little south. However it has to do with my original question on recovery. I broke my steel line last fall pulling a friend out and replaced it with Masterpull synthetic. I put it on the drum nice and tight and...

    Ok, so I bought the M/T ATZ P3 about a month ago. Driving home I noticed right away how harsh a ride I was getting, it was like I was riding in a chuckwagon.
