I hate my brakes. The driver side is still binding up. The pins move freely but once you pump the brakes the wheel doesnt move real good until you hit the caliper a little. That braket was real rusted up in the slide hole a while back but i cleaned it, i guess i will replace both caliper mounting brackets and go from there. Anybody know anything else i can try. Already replaced brake lines, calipers.

I got to go for a ride in "Dorothy the Wretched *****" the other day and Hilton has done a very nice job on her. She is a little loud !!!!!!! Who's going to the Outlaw event this weekend ? We should be set-up on the tower side, bring your burgers, hot dogs, and drinks. The grill will be hot just throw them on and enjoy some fast cars.

Clutch Swap Special thanks to Greenwood Garage and Chris Curry for a job well done!
Here's basically what was left of the factory pilot bearing:
Right before removal of the stock ****:
Old pressure plate and fly-wheel, nicely cooked:
Old clutch disc, also nicely cooked:

Wayne, I can't believe I did it but as of Friday afternoon at 3pm and after almost 17 combined years between GM and JCI, I no longer work there. Talk about a sick feeling! But I started a new job today with much better hours and a little less $$$. I just couldn't deal with the bs any longer and I wasn't going to move to Fairfax or Arlington just to keep working for GM
