Grand children are back home.

I finished adjusting the parking brake, and now have 7 clicks to hard parking brake. I added a locking nut to the threaded end of the passenger side cable before I adjusted the slack out of the cables. Both rear rotors still spin smoothly. This raised my peddle height to about 3/4 of the travel height. I'll live with that for now.

My 'Brake' failure light in the gauge pod is now off with the engine running.

Torqued down both rear axle nuts to 200 Ft. lbs

I am gonna remove the brake pads from my wife's Elantra this afternoon to add the anti squeal stuff. I didn't have any spray to add when I replaced her pads a while back. That squeal is driving us crazy. Got a new can of the spray from NAPA a few days ago.

Finished with the Elantra.

I have to mow in the AM, I want to remove the spare tire tub from the front compartment so I can spray down the rack mounting bolts several times over the weekend with PB Blaster. I want to get the rack out for repair. I will be ordering Rodney's 88 rack bushing Wednesday.

You have a hell of alot more patience then I do. I would have put the wheels on and taken it for a ride even if I could only stop by using the ebrake. I know what you must be feeling right now. Sooooo close but waiting on the last few parts. I couldn't sleep for 5 days waiting for the last part to come in.

Go Joe!! That Caddy-Pon will be moving shortly!!

I had to put the anti squeal spray on my wife's brake pads. I didn't use any when I did the brakes on my 86 Coupe 3 years ago. Anybody know if the 88's need this on the pads, or if it is recommended ? 88 FSM doesn't mention using any. The 88's also have the 'pad' retainer spring-ie thingies that my 86 didn't have.
