It’s an all-wheel-drive CVS. I’m going to swap the rotors to opposite sides and see what happens and put on new brake pads

 

Looks like the pad was sticking in the mount. You can clean and replace the hardware and lube it up or just buy a couple loaded calipers and start fresh. With the loaded calipers you will get the most life from your pads.

 

#1 reason I no longer buy clubs off of eBay.

I got lucky on a TM M6 driver for my daughter and will never shop for clubs from anyone but an Authorized dealer again.

 

There are some good sellers on ebay and if you do get a fake you can report to ebay and get a refund. I feel sorry for the people that don't know and are using those clubs. Check out WRX golf there are some good deals in the classifieds. Most people on their are very honest and i have bought some good stuff. Use paypal and you will be protected.

 

Fake clubs and fake shares, we do it all in this thread...

 

I get WRX emails daily, I think due to my SkyTrak subscription, or I’m just sub’d to them.

 

So get this...Covid is taking out auto parts stores...
Auto Zone has to close on saturday from 2pm to 6pm for retail so the ONLY worker (the manager) can fill commercial pick up orders for the day for 6pm...and then at 6pm a second worker goes on shift and they can re-open...
Guess why he can't get any workers? Yuppee doo...dem kovid bukz....

Also my motor oil has gone from $19 to $27 for the 5 quart in a year...

 

Shop Costco for oil.

I can get a six pack of Mobil 1 for $28

 

It's just transitory. I'm sure it'll be back to $19 in 3 months.

 

Don't forget the fake science ..



Now put your mask on lol

Alright...Time for a test drive...The only thing I noticed is the pad with the metal wear indicator has an extra metal nipple on the back side so the wear indicator could be on top or bottom...That nipple seems to contact the caliper compression surface and it might cause an angular compression maybe...I'll have to look into it...

 

This should just about do it: https://www.homesnap.com/WA/Camas/1520-NE-249th-Avenue

 

They better bring the price down if we can’t get GME to

 

That’s a lot of house, hope you can keep it clean…

So I finished getting the amp wired in as well as running a charge cable behind the dash to the new phone mount setup I got put in. I’m done spending money on the truck for now until something breaks or is worn down to the point it needs replacing. At that point I’ll make upgrades. The only thing that would be just a straight addition would be sliders, which will probably be way down the road since this is my only vehicle right now, so I shouldn’t be doing any off-roading that would be crazy enough to require sliders.

Patiently waiting for my fog lights to go out as well as headlights because I want some brighter bulbs for lowbeam and want to throw in some KC amber fogs.

all simple stuff I know, but I’m working with minimal knowledge,tools, and budget.

Now if GME moons then maybe some icons or fox 2.5s are in order. Otherwise I’m patiently waiting for the shocks to be shot or the rear leafs to sag to the point I can justify needing a replacement. They sag some because OEM leafs suck, but I don’t haul significant weight often enough to need new ones right now.

Edit: maybe I’ll slap a GME meme sticker on it if my shares fund some parts.

 

Dude dont wait on the headlight bulbs. Get these, they are a MASSIVE improvement over stock and dont break the bank

$11 Philips 12361B1 H9 Standard Halogen Replacement Headlight Bulb, 1 Pack

Agreed. This is what I did while I wait to do retrofit or oem LED.

 

I'm a little disappointed it's not deep in the forest or water adjacent, BUT, it does have the wine cellar and wet bar already in it. I can plant some trees outside I guess.

Also I like the private gated entry. Super useful to peer over and scoff at the commoners.

With my current home equity I am only about $3,600,000 short, so I've got a pretty good chance I think

 

with the H9’s you have to trim off a tiny bit of the plastic for it to fit in the stock headlight housings right? I think I remember seeing that. Also I’m not sure if the bulbs are stock or not since truck had 33k on it when I got it. I’m assuming so since only thing I could tell was added was a bed cover. Also I’m closing in on 10 k miles with the truck. I’d say I’m 95% satisfied with it. OVTune would probably fix that 5%

 

Yea, took about 5 seconds to trim it. Headlight output was something I couldn’t deal with and it was a cheap/easy/effective fix
