My only real pre-season project was to re-pack the front wheel bearings. Simple right? Of course this involved new felt seals (soaked in oil). I mustāve told myself a hundred times, āWhatever you do, DO NOT SPIN THE ROTOR until all of the excess oil is out of the felt!ā
Once I replaced the calipers and pads, however, I could not fight the urge to spin the rotor and consequently soaked one of the brake pads in 5w30. I wanted to be sure the disc was centered, okay?!
Anyway, I assume the best thing to do is replace the old brake pad and wanted some opinions on a suitable part. I only put around 500 miles/year on the vehicle, so would the stock pad suffice? I donāt want to drop $150/set if I donāt need to.
Many thanks everyone,
