Drive in , drive out rules. In my lifetime I have spent more time working on vehicles than I wish to remember. The good jobs I enjoy. Tinkerer-- that's a bit harsh, you do good work JET....

They were squealing on light application so I thought shag it I'll change em. Turns out the old ones had heaps of meat left. They didn't have the shims on the back of them though like the new ones do. Plus I added the red goo to the pads to help. Got this pic Right rear wheel well. Random number. There isn't one on the left side. Yes I cleaned the cradle. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80918-what-did-you-do-to-your-car-today/page/796/#findComment-1630237 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a sh-t job. Need smaller hands. Expand Job done. Fixed the rough idle ( vacuum leak). Shoving my hands under the manifold has sure made them sore. Lucky I have a good range of tools. Some of the lower bolts were pricks. Ratchet 10mm ring spanner and 1/4 inch rotating ratchet saved the day Edited 29/01/17 01:54 PM by arronm Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80918-what-did-you-do-to-your-car-today/page/796/#findComment-1630247 Share on other sites More sharing options...
