I need some local assistance desperately.
This week I took my wheels / tires off to have them balanced. I figured I may as well check the rear brakes while the wheels are off, since I was hearing some brake grinding noises. I discovered that the rear pads on the drivers side were past shot. I ordered some pads and retainers from O'Reilly's just to bet it back on the road and they would arrive today. Well, they arrived. Evidently multiple superseded part numbers resulted in pads that are the right shape but physically too large. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) I need at a minimum 1 pair of used pads and 2 retaining spring clips. A set of used or new rear pads, a complete rear brake hardware set and 1 good used rotor would be ideal. There's a good chance I may be selling my DD Lincoln Navigator today. My 914 is my only other car, hence the urgency. Any local parts above that I could pick up today would be immensely appreciated! Anywhere within 1-2 hours from me would work. |

How far off are those new pads? If not too much, maybe you just need to retract the pistons a little bit more to make room for the pads. If you get desperate, you can also use a grinder to thin down the pad material a bit. Just be aware that you will end up with an uneven face that will take a while to bed in. Make sure to wear a filter mask if you do this. |
