Default Always something!! :)

So I finally got around to installing my rims today and low and behold my rear calipers are just totally shot :/ ordered up 2 calipers with new pads and rotors. I gotta admit I wasn't expecting a rear brake job but, hey, glad I caught it now before something really bad happened!

LOL Already had that happen 2 summers ago. Ebrake cables got f***ed up and were pushing that pads against the rotor until it sheared off the caliper altogether. As soon as I heard the caliper sticking in the rear last week I was like OH **** BRAKES ARE GETTING DONE NOW lol
