Well, I finally did my front brakes this weekend and finished them up Monday.
I've had the parts sitting here for about 2 years, but the fronts really didn't need
replaced yet.
I used the AC Delco severe duty coated calipers/ caliper brackets. I cleaned them off quickly
and used a brush on gloss black caliper paint from Eastwood. It all turned out great.
I also did the oe caliper brake lines, PowerStop Z23 towing pads, Powerstop slotted and'
coated rotors (like i have on the rear) ... These look really good.
I cleaned up all components and it all looks great.. Did my "bed-in" procedure Monday.
And got a few suburban miles on it today.
Finally got some new silicone grease for my grease gun for my Poly Bushings in the
front and rear sway bars, links, panhard bar, & lower control arms.
That stuff I bought 2-3 years ago was expensive: $17 for one tube.....
post covid in our new economy is was $50... yes 50 bucks for ONE grease cartridge...
I have 3 cars that have poly bushings in the suspension. I learned the hard way
Not to use standard grease gun grease on the poly - it ate thru some of my bushing within
3 years - expensive repair for control arms
