    looks like there was something in the pad compound - like a defect or something. Is it proud? or below the surface?

    I put Lucas in mine. Seems fine. But, I've got a real good deal on Liqui-moly going, so that's next.

    I've run them for many years and used to know an eaton engr through work. I run 85w140 non synthetic because it raises the bias ratio. Years ago you could call the eaton tech line and they would tell you the same thing.I went with Shell 85w140...

    Hope it’s alright to revive this old thread & thanks for all the helpful input…SRP pedals install on my ‘08 Shelby went great.I bought them from LMR & it was good advice to remove the entire gas pedal first (3, 10mm nuts & unplug the...

    Hey Eric thanks buddy . You know after I learned that linear is more predictable and does not change with driving I was thinking Streeda too. I just read your handling set up and would love to ditto that. Did you buy your car stock? So you got... (see full post)

    You can hurt lines, filters, coolers, etc. by over-pressuring, but mostly it's a case of getting everything warm before stressing it. Oil touches all the vital parts. If it's cold, so are they....And also, it's just a stupid thing to do. Don't...

    My first simple change which should straighten the angle on the drop links so the joints sit more in the middle of their range.More concerning is this brake hose though. Please replace it. Its not worth the risk of it failing.
