As the title says.......

After finding a bad power steering pump over the weekend I decided to look at replacing the brakes while the car is off the road waiting for the new pump and belts.

After digging into the brakes, I found two calipers leaking fairly decently, one sticking caliper, and one with the piston partially cocked in the bore. These look like the original calipers, so I an biting the bullet and replacing all four along with the rubber brake hoses and parking brake shoes.

So, what started out as a simple oil change and tire rotation has turned into a SPENDY, but needed maintenance evolution.
