Brakes.

Replaced the Left Front Pads tonight. Will carpool w/Morgan tomorrow and do the Right Front Pads then. And, because I'm too cheap/lazy/stupid to have the rotors ground (or just replace them) I'll probably be doing it all again in six months. Maybe then I'll spring for ceramic pads and new rotors. Not looking forward to the RF pads - tight spot in the garage, and I won't have the wiggle room.

Back the car into the garage so you can have the room you need to do the !pads work?

CYa!

PS: I don't grind the rotors unless the pedal is pulsing from them being warped or they are heavily grooved. I really like Raybestos Brute Stop pads for the street.

Sadly, that would be more trouble than its worth; I have two canoes on top off the car and backing the car into the garage would entail to high a likelihood of damage.

Thanks for the Rotor advice. I might be OK then. The surfaces are pretty rouugh, but I don't know that they are "heavily grooved"
