Re: Does anyone have this brake caliper upgrade?
Hey tower,
Good to see ya on. I have and still battling more effects from my 3 year GI Bleeding problem. I have some damage to the computer in my head due to constant oxygen deprivation. I just for the 4th time moved to a new neurosurgeon that deals in seizures caused by trauma and so far i love this guy. He jumped in the middle of it with both feet. He told doctors that made the referals that he does not want any of their files until he has made his own analysis of my situation. I was really impressed with that. He told me that he will look at what everyone else thinks after he has done his work. He is having me in some kind of out patient test 2 times a week and said it will be that way for 5 to 8 weeks depending on what he finds along the way.
I have not been allowed to drive now for over a year well since my last kid was married 6/10/06. It was my youngest girl and her wish was that I drove her off in my H2 rather than some stupid limo she said. So I did that and have not driven it much since. Dragon keeps it at the shop making almost continious upgrades that sposnors want and he hauls it to shows.
Well sorry to be so chatty but, hey who is kidding who that is my well known trademark.
Really very good to hear some news about you. I'm off and on with forum depending on how well i'm doing. Many times i just read. I have not gotten to go to the shop with Dragon much since it is about an hours drive away at 80MPH. My daughter takes me to Docs etc. She will take me to shop every so often. I enjoy it and it is a highlight of the month for me.
On the brakes I do not feel the extra piston will help as much as going to stainless steel lines to the factory caliper. The rubber lines are spongy. You could also change to a different pad and rotor. If I was looking to do something without it being a major project I would change the brake lines and it should firm up the brakes allot.
Well I Pray good health for you tower. You know i mean it sincerely. I told my new Doc I have been outdoors all my life and made my living outdoors as a rice farmer etc. I have had to just rely on my faith to hang on. I just tell Doc I think I do not at 50 years old can live the rest of my life in a constant state of being couped up in the house etc. My youngest daughter and her husband moved in with me to help and I'm proud of them but, yet I do not know how to feel to put it ashamed or something. This 22 year young lady should be off on her own with her husband who is a great young man. She was not going to marry the guy last summer when all this seizure stuff started and told him she could not and leave me alone. I felt bad when I found out through the grapevine about her feeling like that, yet proud also as these are things i have taught my children is that when it comes to trouble family blood is thicker than anything and when most will run away in troubled times family will be there. I called them together and told them look get married i will do fine still her answer was no so i told them look I do not need this big house all to myself so get married and pick out what ever rooms you need etc. Well just bragging on my young responsible daughter so should stop.

Oh, tower since we talked last i became a grand pappy for the first time by from my oldest daughter. My grandson has the same priviledge and curse as i had as being the first and oldest granchild in my family. So much was expected of me when it came to all the grandkids etc. tower shoot me an email or PM to get me an update when you get a chance. It is 6;20am and no sleep and nothing to do except write my usual long winded note.
I thank all for your patience.
TAZ
