Worst time doing brakes.
 
Well I got up yesterday to do brakes on the mini. It was a beautiful day, clear Blue skies and hot. I started with the rest and got them doen and then moved to the front passenger tire. Got it all apart and getting ready to go back together when j it decided to start pouring rain. Finally it let up and I was able to finish that wheel up before work. Today I go out to finish up the last wheel (front drive) all was good until the t50 bolt holding the rotor on broke. I couldn't find my easy out ap.i went out and bought a new set along with a spring punch, $26 in tools. I let it soak in PB pb blaster but the easy out just wanted to twist all up. I prolly should have heated it up but whatever I didnt wana deal with it. It broke off in the hole so it wont interfer with the rotor so I decided I'll just run it without the screw. The hib and stud bold and wheel will hold.it in place, no big deal. Got it all back together and when I went to install the new brake sensor I broke it. Apni had to buy a new one $20. This is the worst time I have every had doing brakes. All went good except for the front driver wheel.

Scooter, that wheel is posessed. What else could it be?

Couldn't pay me to do any brake work. Prefer to pay to have it done and end the misery.
