Mornin'. 39.0°f with very dense fog. Visibility is about a block.
Back in January, when we went up north to pick up tile for the bathroom, I noticed the brakes on the truck making an odd noise. I bought new rotors and pads a couple days later. But, I really Really wanted to get the bathroom done, figured the pads and rotors are shot anyway, so I put off the brake job. Well, now the remodeling is done, so today is truck brakes day. No surprise they've gotten worse, a lot worse, 2.5 months later. The salt from the road has made the rear passenger side wheel orange from the metal filings. Odd that it's a rear brake, I've not replaced the front pads yet. Usually the fronts go first. When I look at the rear rotor through the wheel it looks fine. So I suspect the caliper isn't sliding on the pins like it should and is grinding away at the inside of the rotor. So, this job may require a trip to the parts store to get additional stuff. I'll know as soon as I finish this morning coffee.
