hey Mr.Viper....do you Locktite the bolts, use Nylock nuts, or any other tricks to make sure the bolts don't back out?
As a sidenote.....went to the lake today to watch some drag racing. I did some runs up and down the lake about 5 or 6 times. I parked the sled. I went to get back on and had no brakes. The reservoir was low and after further looking I saw that the caliper piston was almost all the way out. It appears that the pad material came off of the steel. Anybody had this problem before? and if so what better brakes did you find to replace what you had before?

I use some blue loc tite on the nuts just for security.
I would get another set of oem brake pads, always lasted the longest.
