hey Dru, since we're on the subject here, I will need your expertise. is it possible to do proper bed in pads on a lift vs. actually driving on the road? a series of 10 hard stops from 60mph to 5mph (stoptech recommended) is kinda hard to do/dangerous. Thanks in advance for your info!

Also please PM me quote on some motul 600 fluids or whatever will be best for my new wilwood BBK setup. I will have 6 pot front and 4 pot rear on 14 inch and 13 inch rotors. I am going to attacking the installs soon and will need some (is a quart enough?) I'll do a pick up with cash.

^^^ The "on-the-lift" method that you just described would NOT be sufficient.
Without load (car's weight and momentum) on the wheels and tires, you're not putting the proper amount of load on the rotors/pads neither.

You will need at least 2 bottles of RBF600, 3 recommended for a thorough bleed.
Check your PMs.
I'll shoot you a quote shortly.

I lost count on the times I've gone to Street Image to get work done.

thats alright, apology accepted.


btw, our shop is focused more along the lines of building and tuning engines, corner weighing and alignment not as big of retailer for other areas of modification.dru i will probably pick up some exterior parts from you for my g when i finish building my other two projects.

see its nice to finally see people apologizing and being respectable.
all I see in the forums are people attacking each other. this is a nice change.

Lastly, (i know this is late but) big ups for Dru. Helped me out with tire situation (SUPER quick service). thanks
