Install/Mod Meet - Sat. 10/24

hey chris, remember to borrow the brake caliper tool from autozone when you do your rear brakes. it makes pushing the piston back in SOOOO much easier (2thumbs)

Will do, thanks! Just found out my rotors n pads won't even ship out until next week. So much for being "in stock".

Hey Mark, when you installed your tranny cooler did you flush the entire system? I have a gallon of coolant but not sure if I should bring more with me.

Also any requests for beverages?

I actually have that tool to do it. Just let me know when you want to do it and I can come lend a hand.

Ok cool. It will probably be a few weeks. I gotta get them on ASAP though because the rear pads have nothing left. I'm kind of pissed at Mazda Gallery for not warning me 4,000 miles ago that they were getting close...but I should have inspected them myself.

I wonder if using the e-brake over the winter caused the rears to wear out faster. Could they have been sticking after cold nights? The fronts still have 5-6mm left while the rears are less than 2.
