Disc Brakes Oct 06

This is the first big job. I took the old drum brakes off of the front, which tend to stop unevenly and get water in them. I got new 4-piston disc brakes and installed them, which included packing the new wheel bearings. All of that went pretty smoothly, except for the first injury to my finger, and popping a very strong bolt because my torque wrench wasn't working properly. The part that took the longest was bleeding them completely, but it was great to have it finished.

drum vs 4 piston calipers... no comparison.
