I had to post this one, so here i am in Nova Scotia and i just found out that my caliper is leaking... can you imagine that 95% of mechanical part on my van as been change or rebuilt, including 95% of the braking system! but the caliper looked new/rebuilt when i did the brake part so i kept it! so on that 5% left, already 3% have failed!!!!!!!! i can imagine myself in Mexico with a broken or badly leaking caliper.. anyway, just to tell you how old those van are and even when you put a lot of time and money some other stuff may go wrong! Now, it's labor day and of course everything is close. On top, those caliper are impossible to find up here, only the re-seal / rebuilt kit is avalaible. Grrrrrr.... |
