Stop in for a cup of coffee

Started mounting the RH said brake caliper. One of the threads took some cleaning out. I wonder if on of the PO:s used an M12 in there or something. My custom fabbed caliper bolts fit very nicely once that was done, though!

Can't make sense of this stuff, though. I knew the brake lines I got close to two years ago were too short but had sort of hoped they would work anyway. Or that I could use the old ones for now. They're pretty ok.

I guess I'll better google some pics.

Are those the Kelsey Hayes 4 piston discs???
 

I just finished filling the area pictured with 3M black rope caulk, it is great stuff. It helps to put the package in the fridge for a little while and then I put the strips I would be using in the freezer while I was getting ready to do it. I got a little overzealous and used a little too much lol and when I put the trim back on, there is a little sealant visible that looks messy. Maybe on a really cold day I can carefully trim away a little. But again it is a great product!
 
Well the right ankle is Swollen up again. So I either screwed it up or it's that time of the month and I'm just retaining water.
 
Good Gawd, the white neo-nazis are protesting in Virginia according to the news. What is the world coming too
 
Well sounds like not everyone thinks the same way.

Someone just drove a car into them


Latest on white nationalist rally: Vehicle plows into group of counter-protesters

One group protest one way.
One individual protests another.
 
Four pistons looks cool, imo. Don't know how well they actually perform, yet.

How long does it take for a package to get to you from the US????

They guy from Belgium came through with the paypal payment... I want to get an idea of when I should ship so it gets there in 2 weeks...
 
Some of those lines can be tricky...

There's a member here that rebuilds them...
Oh, yeah, I'm practicing on soft copper brake line. I've bought a roll of copper-nickel that I'm using as the long-term solution.

The line from front to rear is still on the car so I'm only doing the front now.
