I only put a few miles on it in this state. I checked the front brake pads and found that one side was worn down to the backing plate. This isn't hard to do as these are sintered pads.</p>
<p>I picked up some EBC greenstuff brake pads from Classic Saab Racing. Installed the pads and am back on my way.</p>
<p>I will eventually need to replace those rotors too. One got chewed up by the old pad backing plate.</p>|||
