I love my daughter BUT!!!! Reply #20 – October 25, 2012, 09:15:22 AM Great idea! One to keep in mind.Speaking of brake jobs, it's been my standard practice as a DIY'r to replace the calipers at the same time to avoid the dreaded 'piston sticking in the bore' when the new pads push the piston back into the bore which may or may not be rusty.Overkill?Is there ever a case where you would/could just install new pads, not new rotors. Local, low mileage/yr driver for example?Thanks for sharing! Quote Selected
