pic's just installed brakes
« on: May 19, 2008, 05:43:03 pm »
So I installed new brakes all around, slotted rotors, ceramic pads and stainless steel braded brake lines, wow the brakes feel so much better night and day difference. I must of had air in the hyd. system before because I was not getting any braking action until I had the pedal depress 1/2 way. I also went out for a drive and took some pic's

Where did you get your parts from?   I need 4 wheel reline on my 90 and I wanted to do the steel brake lines.
