Thank you. Condolences on your family's loss.


I'll raise something to pair with that drink!

Merry Christmas and condolences on your losses. I did a little work on the X's brakes yesterday. They were starting to squeal at low speed braking. Pulled the pads, cleaned off the anti-squeal paste and applied lube. Quiet so far.

Happy New Year to all!

Lube under the pads? I'd have replaced the stop squeak with more. I'm batting 1000 with squeak

TEN kids? Your poor mother...

I lost mine young, he was only 57 and I was 13. Miss you, Aba...

Well, the anti-squeal paste, glue actually, that I had was completely dried out and my local auto parts didn't have any thing except anti squeal lube, so I thought I'd give it a shot. So far so good.
