That's the brakes continued

Today the new rear rotors came in and I installed them.  The weather forecast calls for a chance of snow so the AWD might be needed.

I took more time with this brake job than any other one I have done.  The pads fit real tight in the holders so a file was used to clean them up so they slide like they should.  I even cleaned and greased the pins and everything that should slide with brake grease.
Now that looks to good to cover up with a dirty/rusty wheel.



After a quick trip out of the garage and around the block all is good, really they work great.  When I would come to a stop before this brake work, the brakes would still be grabbing when I let off the brake peddle.
