Brakes Done... LAST Sunday
After an enormous temper flare-up and some help from people here, I finally went to PepBoys and rented the brake caliper kit to compress the brake pistons in the rear and change the brake pads...Everything worked fine. Now for the front brakes, which are even LOWER...Im NOT replacing the front brake pads, instead Im installing one of the those Cobra Big Brake kits from Muscle Motors, I ordered it last week. I have'nt seen the kit yet but will I need to re-rent that caliper kit to install these? For reminder these are four 13" slotted brake rotors, SVT Cobra-sized brake calipers in the front and stock-sized in the rear with a set of stainless steel brake hoses...That actually brings me to point number two...I saw (at PepBoys when I was renting the caliper kit) a cheap brake-bleeding kit. I know I'll have to bleed the brakes after swapping out the stock brake lines but is this little kit the way to go? And do I need a wheel alignment after this is done?

no you won't need the caliper tool
EDIT* you know what I mean... you WILL obviously need a brake tool/c clamp to compress the from caliper but you don't need the one that turns and shit no you won't need an alignment I would buy the bleeder kit unless you want to be lazy like me and just make one. I put on the Cobra set up a while back.. it isn't to hard. just make sure you have the Cobra brackets along with the Calipers and you should be fine. good luck |
