Brakes
Turned rotors and added ceramics and could not be happier.
Used a new tool for depressing the calipers was great.
Sorry no pics as I was in a hurry. Reused bolts with Loctite and all is well Feels great.
Thanks to all those on the CF that added notes as far as "How to Do It"
First one (RR) took 35 min (rotor turning and all) and after that about 20 min per wheel. Bled them, refilled with fresh and I was done and back on the road in 21/2 hours.
One thing that I'd line to see is aircraft type push pins (plunger/ball bearing locks used on aicraft landing gears (Remove Before Flight pins) used rather than the pin and bolt set up. Sure would make it easier. I might try to mod it if I can find an old caliper.
Again thanks.
