Caliper Covers $200

The link for Photo Bucket was embedded in the original thread. Here it is again.  Thanks Shodded

I would think a bad night at the Strip Club WOULD BE one that photos were embedded.

A Minor setback over the weekend  in that the Passengers front Banjo Bolt did not get a good seal so leaked under pressure.   Removed wheel, reset bolt and full pressure/leak test.  No further leaks noted both static and under pressure.   Re-bled entire brake system today and ops check normal.
