    Your wheels are probably one of my favorites that I've seen on here for first gens. Wouldn't work with my white truck but great for a dark color.

    Replaced the pads, rotors, and did a brake fluid flush and bleed. According to service records the brakes were bled a couple years ago by a major chain lube shop. LIES! The master cylinder was overflowing with fluid and the brake fluid I pulled out of the bleeder valves was almost rust colored.

    The bleeder valves were on so tight I had to use a lead pipe on my 10mm to get it open. The rubber caps on the rear tires were so old it disintegrated when I removed it. I don't think these brakes have ever been bled. I have a suspicion the lube shop just pumped out the old fluid and dumped in new fluid and called it "bled and flushed". I think the fluid I pulled was the original 1998 brake fluid.

    I replaced everything with PowerStop

    K1233 Z36 brake pads and slotted & drilled rotors. Great improvement over the old ones.

    Surprisingly a lot of rust on the calipers for being a California truck.
