yea, i inspected the hard lines way back when... when i rebuilt and inspected the master cylinder. the operation and components inside the master cylinder are in like-new condition and moved smoothly. all the seals were intact and the bore was not blemished. the proportioning valve was full of Crap, dirt, burnt fluid and sediment. the spring and valves inside were actually siezed and stuck together by the crud.

i just pulled the calipers off and checked the operation of the slider pins. the upper pins had minimal lube on them. the lower sliders moved smoothly though. i cleaned the upper pin off and used some axle grease. took it down the street and back. stomped on the brakes, locked them up a few times to cycle the ABS... no hitches yet.

one thing i need to find are the anti-rattle clips for the pads. the right side (problematic side) is missing both upper and lower clips. the driver side is only missing one clip. im not talking about the ones that sit in the caliper bracket, but the V-shaped spring-clips that apply outward pressure on the pads themselves.

anyone know where i can get them clips?
