I know it goes without saying, but...

Replaced my front calipers + pads this weekend with Cardone rebuilds from Worldpac. Finished the job, bled system, took a test drove on back roads. Came back to the house before going on the highway for the 'high speed' test. Pushed the pedal down when stopped as hard as I could...and pop, pedal went to the floor.

The driver's side caliper blew out, fluid was running down it

Glad I didn't find that out on the highway.

Hope this helps someone...
