    Is there a way to trigger ABS actuator to combat spongy breakes?

    So, I was just trying to diag a possible stuck/sticky caliper so I set the cruiser on four jack stands two on each axle. Each wheel only one maybe two inches off the ground. Had my helper shift it from park to drive. The wheels spooled up as they would. When he depressed the pedal to slow the...

    i would recommend to park next to a wall. if i had to guess its noisier when its cold so do this when its cold if possible just so the noise is more audible. start it, listen for your noise and now just gently add load to the steering pump by slowly turning the steering wheel. if its a pump gear...

    Also forgot to mention, I am a parts guy at a dealer and have acces to commercial pricing on just about everything. And if I’m real sneaky I may be able to build the engine at my shop and the just drop it In at home.

This three thousand dollar...
