    I have no idea anymore.

    Holy shit, he stated in his other thread that after his trip to the dealer in december, his brakes failed 3 days later. I'm not sure why it's being posted about now, as that's a whole other story. The jury needs to read the facts.

    And just to clarify, I'm on the side of the dealer. OP doesn't deserve warranty work.

    Because...Friday (don't judge)

    Here's what happened (recap):
    Dec 23 - OP creates post "Advice for cleaning out rear drum brakes?" explaining that while at dealer having the leaf spring TSB completed, he mentioned that his rear drums have been noisy "sounding like dragging a rock on concrete". Tech couldn't see through inspection hole because of mud/sand and refused to open drums up.

    Dec 28 - OP follows up in same thread and states brake failure and tells the story of limping to dealer, etc.

    May 3 - OP retells story in new thread 5 months later. And most assumed this just happened to him, connecting the first post to this post...hence, 5 months of mud/sand in rear brakes.

    Miss anything?

    Start reading the thread from the first page. That will help. I promise. Maybe.

    Oh I complain about the trimming, chopping, and beating I have had to do for my 285s to not rub...but I would still do it again. Deal with it once and be done.

    Having said that I have one last rubbing point I need to address but am procrastinating since it only happens once a week.
