    Unhappy OMG.....OM freaking G.......

    WTF.......these first generation front brakes............................................ !!!!!!!

    I cannot get the freaking slides plates back into the freaking caliper and bracket..........................

    I can't believe I've owned this cotton picking thing since 1995.

    I've always had trouble with the front brakes.........and I am having trouble right now.

    Being freaking drunk don't help as my wife keeps reminding of......................sshhh (not drunk, just had a few).

    Just venting, sure it will come together.........but, dayyyum, these front brakes.

    And to think, I could have been at "The Dragon" this weekend. Sheeeeeat!!!!!!

    even easier go to the junk yard and get the calipers and Mounts from a sec gen as they will bolt up and then you have a floating caliper system
