Easest Break Job EVER!! 900 1994

Hey guys,
As you can tell by the subject I'm pretty happy with how my break job went this weekend. This was by far the easest job I've ever done with breaks. I managed to change pads (PBR) and bleed the calipers on all four wheels. Then for good measure I rotated my tires, I did this because I wasn't ready to go inside yet. This took me about 1 hour.

Compare this to the first time I had to change just the front pads on my 1987 saab 900. All I can say is never again. Granted where talking an older car but just by touching the front brakes on that car I ended up replacing calipers twice, brake lines, and pads. That was a lot of frustrations.

So if all my other maintenence goes the same (knock on wood) I'll be a pretty happy 940 owner. Hope everone's weekend projects goes as smoothly.

Michael
