We tried to change Carolyn's brake pads. Unlike with Clint's Chrysler, it didn't go well.
We realized we didn't have the correct tools to do take the old pads off, because her car basically needed large hex/allen wrenches. The Chrysler pads just used a normal socket wrench.
In the confusion, Clint took the wrong line off, so brake fluid leaked out. We took these pictures so we can compare how to put the brakes back on.
When we finally got it back together, the brakes didn't work. We tried to bleed the brakes, but we didn't have the correct size wrench for the bleeding valve, despite having metric and imperial. It seemed that the valve was perhaps stripped. Carolyn took the car to Pep Boys the next day to replace her brake pads.
This is a rare case of DIY not saving money. We lost $60 instead of saving $200+. And we lost an afternoon.
I'm still going to do my own Chrysler brake pads, though. This was just a matter of not understanding how to do it.

This sale is for a new pair (2 disc rotors) of Genuine VMAX R-Type (Curved Race Slots) Directional Performance Slotted FRONT disc brake and a matching Front set of brake pads to suit SKODA Octavia NE With PR 1LG models built 2014 Onwards and are a direct replacement item. This item is available on our online store at best price.
The elongated slot is unseen when the brakepad assembly is fitted. To lower the pad for 700c requires very little movement (only 4 mm.) and this allows just enough vertical movement to use either 27 inch or 700c wheels. This would have been impossible on classic Mafac cantilevers. This seems a great idea - perfect for the period when 700c was finally finding acceptance in the US over the earlier standard of 27 inch wheels.

1. Park car in garage (or parking lot, or safe street). Put car reverse (manual) or P (auto). Pull hand brake. Choke other wheels preferrably.
2. Remove wheel cover, and untighten lug nuts to hand-tight.
3. Raise the car with a hydraulic jack.
4. Support the car with a jack stand.
5. Remove the wheel.
6. Use a C-clamp to press the brake caliber housing so that the caliber cylinders retrack all the way.
7. Remove the caliber housing retaining screw so that one can...
8. Swing the caliber housing to expose the brake pads.
9. Remove the two old brake pads.
10. Install new brake pads, and apply anti-squeal grease.
11. Swing the caliber housing back in place, and reinstall the retaining screw.
12. Put the wheel back in place, and hand-tighten the lug nuts.
13. Raise the car with the hydraulic jack and remove the jack stand.
14. Lower the car.
15. Tighten the lug nuts following a star pattern.
16. Put the wheel cover back.
Before repeating the above steps for other wheels, make sure to press on the brakes a few times first. That will help to prevent the brake fluid reservoir from overflowing.

The Weinmann "seven-bump" pads were true classics. They were found on everything from juvenile Schwinn bikes to competitive10-speed racing bikes during the 1960s to 1970s. There were different lengths made for different models. These measure 42 mm long.

Grant Petersen once waxed poetic about these brakes for their smooth modulation and ever since I had to have 'em. I must say that mated to the Tektro RX4 Inverse Levers, this is some of the most pleasant and intuitive braking I have ever felt on any bike. Superior to the Shimano Ultegra 9-speed STI brake levers and V-brakes on my Cannondale T1000 touring bike; superior to the Cane Creek SCR-5 levers and Ultegra caliper brakes (BR-R600) with Kool-Stop brakepads on my Rivendell Rambouillet. Seen here on a Velo Orange Campeur singlespeed commuter. Complete build specs are available at this image in the album. Image made at W 19th and 9th Ave, NYC on a rainy summer afternoon.
From 1857 to the early 1980s the Hurlford Fireclay Works near Kilmarnock produced all kinds of earthenware including bricks, toilets, urinals, baths, chimneypots, coping stones, troughs and even garden ornaments. Among his various business interests, John Howie also operated the Hurlford Oilworks as part of the entrepreneural Howie family. He amassed very significant wealth in his lifetime, and although J & R Howie was eventually acquired by Armitage Shanks (itself later acquired by Blue Circle Cement, then American Standard, itself acquired by Bain Capital...) it still exists in a non-trading form. Most of the site is now semi-cleared scrub with a BMX track. Brakepad manufacturer, Eurofriction, occupies the southwestern portion of the old fireclay works.
I found these bricks lying in the flotsam next to the old ferry slipway at Newport-on-Tay.

These new brake pads from Kool Stop are not a bad fit in these original Universal brake pad holders. These pads are the model "KS-CR" which were originally dimensioned to be perfect replacements for Campagnolo Nuovo Record and Super Record brake holders.
