Captain & Dew isn't my favorite to be honest. I love both, just not mixed together but considering the day...

I think my front left rotor is going bad again. I am getting a shimmy in the steering when I brake just like last time it warped on me. I can honestly say I am not happy with my cryo'd powerslots.

That sucks Jay! I am going on two years on mine and no issues. You need that handy tool that Tom has for reading temps. That way you could check the temp of that rotor compared to the others. I forget have you relaced the calipers?

I have a temp scanner Troy. No I have not replaced any calipers. My rotors were great for the first couple years but now this. I should never have given away the extra pair of rotors I received.

Good morning Jake!

Good morning Jake!

I wonder if that caliper is hanging up a little. I had a rear one do that last year. I ended up having to replace it at Mike's at his GTG last spring.My slide pins were good it just wasn't releasing all the way causing it to get hot.

He has a broken axle in his 4 wheeler Jay. They sent him the wrong axle the first time around and it sounds like they are a little slow at correcting that problem. When the girls had there gtg and I was there we were looking at it then.

Yes sir! I believe that was it. I don't remeber the model but it was a short lived one I think. It is a solid rear axle instead of the independent like so many are now days. I think he said it was 10 yrs old.
