Hey Guys,
Did my first knuckle job finally, thought it was going to be hard not easy. Working in the hot sun was no picnic, but that's where cold drinks come in. Just like everyone on here says it would take a whole weekend and it did. I was already done by 1pm Sunday, but had to wait for some brand new brake rotors on Monday. The Birf DVD by elmariachi was definitely a big help. The FSM is also a must if anyone is going to do this. After watching the DVD about 5 times you really learn it. Also having the proper tools is a must. Now for a question. You didn't think I would ask a question did you? Afterall this is a tech forum.
After looking at my front calipers I have decided to rebuild them. Looking in my FSM it looks like have to apply some special grease to rebuild them. So my question is what the heck is "LITHIUM SOAP BASE GLYCOL GREASE?" Where do I find this stuff? Is it known by a simpler name? Is it available at my local parts store or is this a dealer thing?
Thanks again for the quick help.
