What size wheels can I fit? Group: Members Posts: 4,645 Joined: 5-April 05 From: Scottsdale, AZ Member No.: 3,881 Region Association: Southwest Region |
Ok, a few minutes ago I asked about getting to the allen bolt that is accessible through the trailing arm in order to spread the caliper and get the new pads on. Allan(headrage) was kind enough to give me the correct info. However, I still can't see and/or move shit back up in there. Is it easier to just take the whole caliper off? So far I have made zero progress on spreading the caliper to get the new pads in. Is this really this difficult???

If you haven't already, take a look at the Pelican article on replacing brake pads. There are some photos to help out. This drove me nuts the first time I did it as well. |
