Hello my friend. No echo here! Glad the siding guys are at work and things are going well for y'all. Sharon came home a few days ago and told me that we have a new rattle in the Honda. Like I wanted to hear that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The "NEW" brakes were making funny sounds so I took a screwdriver and stuck between the mount and the caliper and it moved. Now that there is some good mechanical work right there. Well I jacked up the car in the limestone driveway, took off the wheel, checked for bolts that hold the caliper on, no bolts, called the guy, he said he is sure he tightened them up, me say no way, he is buying the bolts, I will install them and tighten them. Well I couldn't let the jack sit under the car all night as the scrapers would have that in a heartbeat so I put a jack stand under the frame and started to let it down and forgot to block the back wheels and it all collapsed under the car. Got the car jack out to get it up far enough off of the regular jack and secured everything on 2x6's so it wouldn't fall down and go boom again. It is about 80+ with very high humidity and I am sweating like a pig. Man I love cars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
