Andddddddddddddddd, down for the count.

At least the front left (only one I've looked at) caliper is boned. I think the rotor is boned also. When I spin the rotor while on the hub and I look at it from the top down, it seems to wiggle. So either the hub is fucked up or the rotor is warped. And, when I spin the hub I get a nasty grinding type noise.

The lower pivot ball and some other pivoty type thing near it both have busted boots.

Looks like I'm bringing the 6...

And, time to make a shopping list. Fuck it, I'm redoing my whole suspension/steering system.

On the plus side my new strut mount went on without a hitch.
