I finally got the actuator modified back to original and installed -
all set to bleed the brakes and get 'er back on the road.


NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!


The freakin' zerks on the BRAND NEW CALIPERS were rusted to nubs -
NUBS - nothing to grip, came apart in my hands and the brake wrench.


Now I gotta remove the calipers, use an easy out to get the rest of
the zerks out of the calipers....


WHAT NEXT!?!? *:)

I am curious as to the zerks on your calipers. What are they for?


Bleeding the brake lines?

Exactly.
