Imoutgoodbye Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Why are you replacing the brakes and calipers just because of a warped rotor? Because the last time I replaced the brakes (a year and a half ago) I didn't replace the calipers or the rotors...calipers aren't in the best of shape right now, so, may as well get ALL the routine maintenance in that area done. I did the rear brakes a couple months ago...brake drums are not fun. Besides, winter's coming. Better safe than sorry. Loan me a left handed screwdriver, will ya?

KRins Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 At some point it becomes a why not? kind of thing, at least in my book. And tempting as replacing rotors is (mainly because I like the term, freshly machined)...I'll take baseball for the block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H&R Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Come help me work on my car. Driver's side rotor is warped, so I have to replace the brakes and calipers on both sides along with both rotors. You can help me prank the idiot at the auto parts store. Last year I told him my Delorean needed a new flux capacitor. He called the warehouse. Today I called and asked if he could order me a left handed screwdriver. Sure, if you pay for the trip across the atlantic, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corpsestomp Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 So I haven't played(besides last night) for almost a year and I come back to this...*cries softly to himself* Also, Valek, if I weren't so damn busy on every day but Monday, I actually would come help you. Brakes are just about the ONLY thing I know how to do on a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warmongrel Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I gotta agree on the calipers, if you're doing it yourself and paying 30 bucks a caliper, might aswell. I mean, EVERY break job people used to rebuild the calipers but these days everyone got so cheap (and it's easier to replace them now than rebuild costwise) that it's often over looked. A warped rotor definately isn't reason enough, but going through the trouble of taking that rotor off in your driveway definately is . So anyway, I just JUMPED out of my deep sleep to realize I have five hours before I gotta go to work and now I'll have to go "interrupt my wifes sleep" so I can get back to bed again. The excitement of awaited pk wont let me sleep without some exhausting physical labor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Voodoo Doll Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Yep, read that. Don't see it happening that way. Why did we have the last PWIPE? Massive changes to EQ. I hear what you're all saying. I've been through two, one on AR, one on here. For an extremely small PB that spends more time rage deleting due to lost EQ/bruised ego/ or just flat out logging off in the face of overwhelming odds/lack of EQ or seriously lacks the ability to create a world/player driven environment themselves. Meh, I think the losses would be minimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were all taken away, I'm not sure I'd have the strength to start all over. Not in quite some time at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
