Re: '90 ZR-1 brake refurbish options
Looks like you are all set and looking forward to Carlisle. I have the Powerstop drilled and slotted rotors and they are nice.

Good to hear, it will be nice to not have to worry about the brakes for a while, and have them looking good on top of that. I punched out the brake dust guards from my wheels as well (finally) so I'll actually be able to see everything. Of course now that the wheels are off for a bit, I should look into wheel refinish, because, you know, while I'm in there ...

Re: '90 ZR-1 brake refurbish options
Operation scrub the corners has begun. Made some quick progress, and my shock is yellow again (mostly). Forgot to get a before pic, but will on the next corners. Expecting lots of elbow grease to get it where I want. ABS sensor came right out, got lucky there.

Re: '90 ZR-1 brake refurbish options
Looking to get a brake bleeder kit of some kind for when I'm ready to put everything back together.
If anyone has recommendations, would be appreciated.

Dan
Get some Speed Bleeders, they make bleeding brakes a one man job. There's nothing worse than having your Bride help you bleed brakes.... Ask me how I know... They're bleed screws with a built in check valve. Summit probably has them. |
