Hey Sled, I may be a lot of things but I don't know if knowledgeable is one of them. I'm just repeating most of what I've learned on this site. I had brake problems a few years ago and got help from fellow members. After I took mine apart to the last bolt I learned a bit more.
On a side note, I like your signature. I just lost my Dad who was wounded three times in WWII and we just celebrated his war bride and my mother's 89th. God bless them all.
