    Remove and take to the local brake place. they will rebuild it for you. 
     
    A lot easier than buying another old item.

    They're not too hard to rebuild yourself, especially the fronts.
     
    I knocked over all four within an afternoon with beers.

    the brakes guys wanted 300$ a side to do the calipers.
    i was like yeah.. nah
    so went to the wrecker brought one for 50$ AND got almost brand new ferodo pads with them ahahahahahah with 6 months parts warranty.
    Cheering, have flushed and cleaned. will install tomorrow, that will get me out of trouble for the time being.
    Also noticed he had a fairly straight 92 AUS spec white t top in the yard, paints not the best, but the thing is free of rust, and quite straight couldnt see a dent on it,

    black un cracked dash black trim, looked nice. omce upon a time,

    Hi Gatesys
     
    Any chance you can ask them how much they want for the dash as I need one after the last one I bought got broken by the freight company? I can pick it up when I head up to you.
     
    Thanks heaps
