I still dream of buying up a whole southern body and swapping the engine over. or maybe just selling this one and buying a rust free CRD. worked on the rear brakes today and stopped mid-project up after finding the caliper slides completely jammed up on the drivers side. looks like I'll be doing all the calipers and soft lines tomorrow. rusted brake line fittings suck. sprayed it all down with pb blaster and we'll see what the mornin' brings. sigh...

Man, I would have happily given you all sorts of stuff off the CRD I parted out if you were nearby, all sorts of stuff just went to scrap.
Pete M Posted May 12, 2018 Author Posted May 12, 2018 shoulda woulda coulda. I'll make due should I need something. don't sweat it. on a positive note I have replaced all the calipers and soft lines and everything seems to be good. was pleasantly surprised how easily the old brake line fittings came loose.
