I'm feeling pretty good about my newbie mechanical skills.....Today I installed the rebuilt SSBC calipers and bled the brakes all around - for the first time ever and all by myself. Like I tell my sons "I'm such a big boy" /forums/images/icons/wink.gif
I think I sweated out about 5 gallons in the 90 degree heat. Took me about 2.5 hours start to finish. Took it for a short ride to check 'em, and other than one short chirp from the front on the first semi-hard brake they were smooth. Don't know why that happened, but I'm hoping that it's no big deal (did not happen again)
The old brake fluid was a pretty dark reddish brown, where the new fluid was just slightly tan.....Is this a bad sign?
