Re: Xantia - Complexity of overhauling brake caliper
I haven't got time to. I'm off to play the drums, followed by a brake to diskuss the set list, and (as it isn't a big list) we will need to work out how to pad it out. Must go, as the singer just arrived wearing a copper slip.

I think we don't have enough material to cause FRICTION but I've DRUM up a bit more to keep this BLEEDING thread going.

Re: Xantia - Complexity of overhauling brake caliper
Poor Zohar, thinking he's got lots of helpful posts
I expect his brain's spinning. Or perhaps brain and BRAKE CALIPER are now both SEIZED, and he's got no ROTATION. Perhaps he's become UNBALANCED, despite all our help - tee hee
