well last week my brakes got kinda soft suddenly, and today i had a chance to look at it even though its 16* out.

Pulled the wheel, and i instantly saw brake fluid leaking out of the drum. Pulled the drum, and my pads are worn to nothing, drums are grovved up pretty bad, and the wheel cylinder is pissing out fluid.

Thats no big deal since the wheel cylinders are only 9 bucks, i have a warentee with my pads, so i get new ones for free. And my hardware is less then a year old. All i have to really worry about it drums.


Also, like ive mentioned before, i have a hop to my truck when turning. well one of my end links was snapped in two. So today i took off the sway bar, and the other end link snapped as i was taking it off. But now i cant get it to hop. Maybe that was my problem?


But all in all i still have pretty good breaks so they can wait until i get my taxes in two weeks or less

Where'd you order the bezel? I need one and don't want to pay stealership prices or get an obviously inferior piece, and have been thinking about buying from a wrecking yard but would rather not.
