Next time you should only zoom in on the caliper or something, make it a bit more challenging lol. Just kidding, good luck

If anyone wants me to pull the parts for them its gonna cost you. Like $400. lol

I started on a crown vic and I got everythign but the backing plate pulled. I went to pull the axle shafts. I pulled the diff cover (stainless btw I took that too) only to find the retainer pin on the back side of the carrier. There was an hour and a half wasted.

I started to pull one side on an explorer only to find that the other side was missing.

Finally I found one that had everything I needed...except the slider pins...and I forgot to grab them off the other explorer DOH! So now i need to find a couple of them and ive got everything.

As I was getting the last bolt off the wrench slipped and flew into a gas tank through the hole where the pump should be, so I fought with that for 15 minutes to get my wrench back.

3.5 hours spent at the JY today. Luckly they gave me the diff cover for free.

I hope to, I may need to engineer a little something to get them to work. Tomorrow Im taking apart one of my drums to look at it and see what I need to do. I have all of the parts for the parking brake I need nee to figure out how to make it work.

that happened to me but not in a gas tank, more like the steel tubes they use to support vehicles lol.. dropped my little 7 mm wrench down one and put my flashlight in to discover a nest of some nasty lookin spiders..... i pulled out my can of wd40 and torched all the little bastards to get my wrench back haha

Any ideas on how much it costs to get rotors turned? The pads are in decent shape and will work for a while. And then comes the subject of brake lines....
