DHWIFE said something about breakdowns, guess I'm first. I got about 30 miles from the house and the truck started slowing down (Breaking in new G20'S BTW) so I jump out of the cab and see smoke pouring off both sets of rear brakes. So my buddy shows up and makes an Ice run to cool them off, we cooled them off, and proceeded home without incident. Brake issues suck, guess I'll have to go through them next week or so. I will be at Haspin saturday morning and camping without a truck, need to pick-up/pay for shirts and hats. While I'm there I'll be picking members brains about resolving my brake issue. The parts I was trading/selling are still in my truck, I can't put them in a civic, so we'll have to figure something out if someone still wants them. See you Sayurday morning noonish.

Gimpy said adjust the brakes out a little bit (.20 gap)using the top adjusting nuts on the backing plate. Should be fine then!

I will be coming down I-75 in the TROY area about 4:00am .

If you are planning on being up I will stop by and take some part to Haspen for you.

JDub was having issues with his Dodge. He can't haul all the stuff he needs for a weekend of camping with his 1009 so if you see him, it will likely be Saturday for a day event. Whilst speaking with JW on the horn the other day I reminded him that we have camped for longer with less, he reminded me that at the time, less was all we had, now we have more and he won't go unles he can tall all his stuff with him. Godspeed to my brothers and sisters at Haspin! Tell Stretch I have quite a trade deal brewing for him!
