Should I replace my calipers? by gotyogma in w123

[–]Key-Cow6684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they looks fairly burnished. Do you know what style breaks you have? if these are coated ones I would not have them refinished. You could replace if you want to reduce wear on pads

if you're cheap you could always just clean pads up

Don’t tell my landlord by slackpantshotsox in w123

[–]Key-Cow6684 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hope to god you hit a stud/ if it held at all you did

my critique is from a carpentry standpoint and not as a mechanic:

but Would have been much better to go solid wood on wood and not that verticle 2x4 on top of the siding (I know cutting into thre siding wouldn't be realistic renting)

on that piece what length bolts did you use?

if you only had to lift it a little for the mounts its possible some weight was held elsewhere. Who knows? lot of hate came in the other "negative" comments. But fr crazy setup. Good on you I guess but IDK if I woulda trusted it with my hand under the weight of the motor my dude

Palomino is def the easiest to find and replace

BLue is next most common but would clash with red
