    I installed new brake pads last night while intoxicated in my garage. I know, it’s dumb. This happened 3 years ago when I was drunk and drained my transmission fluid instead of my oil. Anyway…

    I drove about 20 miles when I heard a sound. Fixes them on the side of the highway. Everything is fine now I think. Is there any permanent damage you think? Anything I should watch for? I think my rotor is fine. Any suggestions let me know. Thank you.

    Oh I had my music blasting. Once I turned it down I could feel a little tiny vibration when pressing the brakes. I pulled over and checked then I saw it.

    I’ll take some pics tomorrow when I pull the wheel off. Hope it’s fine.

    I guess this is better than doing meth and "working" on your truck.
