    Reminds me of when my breaks started failing on my 1990 Chrysler LeBaron so I got a job at a break repair place long enough to fix them then I quit.

      those bits on a car are called “brakes”. When a brake breaks, it’s a broken brake and needs to be fixed.

        Thank you. That’s one of my little pet peeves I see online; that and when people are trying to say lose but type loose.

            *alright is the wrong word you meant to use there to rile someone up. “all right” is technically correct, and you’ll want to avoid that.

            • also, best if you use two different theres. “their they’re, it’ll be alright” gets you where you want to go much worse.

        Pads, calibers and new discs. That seemed like a lot of money for 17 year old kid. I worked there for a couple of months. I learned a few things, like working on brakes is not for me.

          I hate working on brakes. Even just replacing pads can be a pain in the ass nevermind when you have to do real work to 'em.

          I try to do all the basic work/maintenance myself, but fuck brakes.
