    I believe fiddle was joking as well. Being a member of r3v, you should be used to a certian level of sarcasm. :D

      Also, I just got this car and those allen bolts are like not been removed since...

      Looking at the rotors, they probably just keep on changing the pads without changing the rotors? pads are ok but rotors are really warped out, grooves are really deep and never seen so much rust in a rotor.

      I'll be doing the rears, so what are other anti-seize products other than PB Blaster before I use my drill again? TIA
      you have to use the anti-seize before you put them in, it keeps them from getting stuck. for now you'll have to use PB Blaster, and hopefully you have access to an impact.

        Dremel it into a flathead, use a big screwdriver. Problem solved.

                Wow. It should be easy as pie to remove the set screw from a car from TX.

                For those cars that have been driven in the harsh winters of the Northeast, you will likely need a torch and an impact driver--one of those manual drivers that you attach a screwdriver or allen bit on one end, and hammer the other end.

                          The drama is most amusing!
                          The difference between porcupines and BMWs is that porcupines have the pricks on the outside!
