This is bad

Sunday, May 15, 2011

Going IS great.. BUT STOPPING is SPECTACULAR..

Something just didn't feel right... Stopping distance was increased, and the brake pedal felt "soft"

Friday afternoon I did a quick tear- down to identify the issue.. As it turned out one rear brake shoe was cracked, and  both passenger side shoes showed signs of glazing.  At this point I am thinking that somehow I picked up a bit of debris somewhere..


Luckily new parts were "ordered" Friday night and were in my hands before 9 on saturday.. My pal Brian at NAPA is once again my hero..

My test drive saturday night included several screeching stops.. which make me very happy .
