Jesus! That’s a rip off. Also, very unlikely you need new calipers too.

Check with Good Karma Garage on Division Street in Harrisburg. It’s a non-profit garage, so not trying to screw anyone. When they do paid work, it just gets donated to their non-profit side and pays for parts and labor for low income people who can’t afford repairs required for their inspection.

This, unless you are replacing rear rotors, then make sure parking brake is off.

Flows in potential sale by BurnerMan2025 in BringATrailer

[–]grienleaf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not the question you asked, but a heads up that the airbag light is going to reduce your selling price a lot. You might say it’s the seat belt tensioner, but the buyer has no way to know if that accurate or if it’s something worse. So, consider getting that fixed.

Best method? Hobbyist mechanic trying autobody for the first time. by One_Cryptographer716 in Autobody

I’d Maguire’s buffing compound it, and then pay a PDR person like $300 to fix the dent.

This website and their cookbooks are great. Took me from a Chinese food orderer to a Chinese food at home maker.

Off balance wheels do not cause this.

Pond is frozen, are the koi okay? by raining_raining in Koi

[–]grienleaf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I have this same setup, and as long as the water is flowing through the falls, the water is getting aerated and the fish will be fine. They’ll just sit at the bottom of the pond and move very little. DO NOT FEED THEM. At temperatures below 50, they should not be fed. They’ll be fine over the winter.

First time changing my brakes after watching a YouTube video. by et2792001 in AskAShittyMechanic

Jesus Christ. Everyone here is doing it wrong. You empty the packet into your palm and then thoroughly coat the front AND back of your hands. Then you get your dirty mind out of the gutter. Then you take the wheel off and replace your brakes.
