Keystone State Thread

Sorry, I just couldn't help myself

 

Lol, I was thinking the same.

 

You know you're old when...


...you saw Hendrix live in concert...


...at the Spectrum.

 

Quick question for ypu gents. If the brake piston won't collapse back into the caliper does that mean it's screwed.

 

Yea, pretty much...

Raybestos makes some nice new calipers you can get off Rock Auto. Picked up a set for our '14 Tacoma. Very nice units.

 

Like Sean Diddy's property "seized "

 

Some brake pistons are literally "screwed", i.e. they need to be rotated in order to retract them. I think it is when they're used as parking brakes? Look for a cable going into the caliper.

 

If this is the Accord he's working on, 95% sure they're standard push in pistons all around.

 

I wouldn’t consider that a bad thing though. So many innovative highly influential musicians are gone. I’d potentially commit a crime to see some of those guys live

 

They are the screw type I bought the tool specifically for it. But still no movement

 

is this on the Honda? is it a rear piston? They do not all compress in; many of them have a cross pattern on them and thread in.

edit: I just saw your later response. it shouldn't take a lot of force so it sounds like yours is seized.

 

Yea its seized. Double checked with my buddy he's a honda tech.

 

3 out of 5 body mounts done. Valve cover gasket removed and replaced. So both are done now.

 

Getting near eclipse time in our area. My wife brought hime two pair of eclipse sunglasses. She and the grandson are outside. The dog is falling asleep. She must think it's night time.

 

It's such a strange hue outside. Got home in time to throw on my welding helmet and look at it. Was neat for a couple seconds I guess. Needed headlights going for a beer run at 3:15

 

I missed it even though I was outside. I might have been under the honda when it crossed by. Fighting the rear motor mount. 1 motor mount ledt to do. I'll be doing that tomorrow.

 

You're putting so much time into that beater with a heater

Edit: so that sounded really rude. Was not my intention at all.

 

No worries. Yea the car was hurting but most likely gonna sell it when I'm done. But now it's finally going back together

 

I Put those stupid glasses over my camera lens.
