Caliper go bye bye from carrier...

[Massive Lee]

Is that possible that some monkey mechanic forgot to tighten the carrier's bolts? At least, it looks very much like that. Are the two 12mm bolts still with the remains of the carrier and attached to the two mounting ears?

Or did you do a brake job lately and forgot to tighten the two bolts to 85ft.lb?

the problem is not the broken caliper, tire or brake disc... the problem is that rim. as i told you, i will do my best to find one.

Yeh...exactly man. all of that shit is replaceable!

Let me know man.

I saw a 15inch on ebay.de today...hopefully a 16 will pop up.

Thanks guys!

Really appreciate all of the help!!

Yes, it does suck...but thankfully its all replaceable.

I hope I can find another wheel...:(

[asubimmer]

gosh thats insane, glad you are ok!

[xLibelle]

oh damn

[dude8383]

where did you get those "bran new" rotors from?
maybe those are to blame as well. a defect or something.

Patrick @ BMA.

I'm definitely not blaming him, because he's the man! Hopefully he can get me replacements!

its a LONG shot, but wheel collision center out of bath, PA might be able to do something with that rim. they work wonders, ask me how i know.

Sent them an email! Thanks!

I do not think I would trust anyone that put that wheel back together.

As for SS lines, I have a full set minus one front line. I picked them up from BMP because I had a problem unlike yours. Id kick you the set minus one front line for $40 shipped. PM me and let me know!

Thanks dude, I will let you know!

Rotors will warp if you do not tighten down the lugs evenly and if you do not use the set screw that keeps the rotor on the hub. Also I have been told that you should resurface the rotors when they are new because they can warp on the shelf. I am not sure I believe this because I bought a new pair last year and just cleaned off the protective coating and they worked fine.

Warped on the shelf? Man that warehouse must have been hot inside.

Wow Ive literally never seen that......literally.
