You should setup a business account there so you can get jobber price on things too.

Do they use good quality parts?



Nappa has a pair and I would like to get it fixed today so I'll head out to Airdrie to pick them up so I can get her off the jacks... she's mad at me right now...



But I'll check them out though...

She lives!!!! SHE LIVES!!!!!



I freakin hope this is the last time I have to redo my brakes.... But it was definitely nothing as a result of me.... Those Calipres from Bowness Auto were a joke! So I machined the rotors myself as I took them to a garage and they said they were ok - so more just to make me happy.. sanded them back to a nice machined face and installed the new new calipres and pads.



So I guess I can;t say the Wagner Thermo quiet pads are crap as I think it was more the calipres - but I still think they could have been better. Went with OEN quality Raybestos pads and hopefully done now...

Sounds like a bit of a nightmare with those calipers, I can't believe they fell apart!



Raybestos pads are good, you should be happy with those.

I was thinking maybe we should use this method to get our Hummers to Whipsaw ....

oops should have posted it in the 2011 run lol

My luck - mine will be the one that slides into a tree!! Lol...



Brakes seem perfectly fine now so hopefully that is squared away now... Just waiting for the wife to get home as I have the rear protective cage (For lack of better words as not sure what it's actually called...) off and I tried jumping on it to bend it back and man, I can't even budge it!! 275 lbs coming down on the centre bar and I can't even get a bounce!



So gunna drive on it with the Honda with it propped against the curb and hopefully I can bend it back one bar at a time that way... strong son of a gun!



Update - Gawd, the honda didn't even bend it. Had to take her off the ramps and use the Humma one bar at a time and worked like a jiffy.... may have overdone it - but now I have eben more clearance so for the good in the end...

One note; the trail up to the Falls is closed until October 31st right now, I think they shut down the river crossing due to fish runs for the moment.

Dude, your Bro is in the military..... can't he pull some favours???

He can probably get us a LAV, but no C-17's <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... >/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

Bowness Auto gave me a full refund so that's kewl! I like them again but will stay away from their remanufactured line though....



So a week and a half left until the 23rd... getting excited! Looking forward to seeing Gaza's mods.... I may have to ride Bitch on one of the steep hills to see how she does now.... with front and rear ARB airlockers, and with the lower gears - she'll probably coast up the steep hills!
