Have you installed the CD I gave you a while back?

I did when I still had a windows machine around.

I've since switched to all linux at home.

Unfortunately yes. After the booster went and dragged all 4 corners, it seems the heat may have messed up the drivers rear. The car is sluggish and that corner is always covered in brake dust.

I need to see if I need rear rotors too. At a minimum I will need the caliper, fresh rear pads, and front pads.

And that's stopping you from running a virtual machine how? ;)

And I still think you should try rebuilding the caliper first. Cheap and easy.

Can you rebuild a stock caliper? I thought they were made to be replaced.

Rebuild kits are available as well for some rear calipers.

If thats the case then maybe one of those will do the trick. I didn't even realize they had rebuild kits available.

I have to rebuild my wilwoods at some time too. Maybe I can make a whole day out of it and do them all and flush the brake system... again.

I hate brake work. :p
