Yes give those valves dense air and look out. Mine is on jack stands right now. Getting rear calipers polished since I am replacing brake hoses and fluid.

Steve,

The calipers are the stock ones. curious to see how they look polished out. Should get them back Monday or Tuesday. I am still thinking about what color to paint the abutment bracket for the, red or black? Would love to have done the C6Z rears but I don't have Dave Johnson money.

Brett... Ever notice how quick these things can turn what looks like a smooth country blacktop into a lasagnea noodle???
