Re: Madaz's V8 lux
Update time..........
So I finally had the trailer sorted a couple of months ago,
And now its time for old 78 to have a bit of luvin...........
Sitting outside in the weather for a year while its owner healed has done it no favours...........
First thing was to get it mobile to bring into town to work on.........
All 4 brake calipers had seized the pistons, so a rebuild kit from online autoparts sorted that.
And im trying some DBA slotted rotors to see if it helps it stop a bit better..........
