Especially the rubber ones!! I am in the process of changing out the front inserts and was going to do the rubber lines anyways, and boy am I glad I did.
Here is a picture of what it looked like in the car, not the best condition but certainly not too bad...or is it??  And as soon as I moved it just a bit, I noticed the real condition (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif)  The picture doesn't even show how bad it truly was, some of the cracks went all the way through...scary stuff. Just a reminder to check those lines, we are talking about brakes here and its not a system you don't want running at 100% |

i just replaced mine - one had a buldged exterior and the other had a clogged ID.
if i can do it awake without any help - you can do it in your sleep. and get a motive bleeder to make bleeding a one man job. jim Attached thumbnail(s)
