The brakes?
The ones on my Explorer?
The ones that started grinding about a week ago?
Yeah, them.
The front right caliper froze, and has been utterly wrecked. Rotor's nearly scored through front and back. I've got a handful of days before the rotor shatters and the truck simply won't go anymore.

Prices for just the parts range from the mid 300's to the upper 500's; given the cost of parts alone, this is a job that needs to be done via brother-in-law.

*sigh*

Core charges are such a joke, almost all the parts are made in china these days and not rebuilt at all. They just know 90% of the people won't bother to return the cores . Like "Core charges" on a plastic and aluminum radiator. rrrrrrrrrr


I just got my truck all done and found a hole in the frame in a critical spot, so I have some car blues over here too. Sadly I never learned to weld.
