Here is a shot of the hoist in action which I purchased from Auto Lifters of America.
This is my favorite view of the C5 - undergoing surgery.
You can see all of the old parts removed and laid
out on the ground. Notice the drip pans scavenged to keep brake fluid off the floor.
Suspension upgrade is also underway.
These two shots show the brakes completely removed from the car. The C5
has the oddest emergency brake I have ever seen. It only has one big shoe that wraps all
the way around. if you accidentally pop a shoe off it is a real bugger to install again so
be careful.
These are the Mallett silver street
pads. I have applied a coating of Napa anti-brake squeak compound on the back. Let this
dry before installing.
The finished product!!! Believe me these are beautiful pictures to a brake fanatic like
myself. A picture is worth a thousand words so you don't have to read the article, just look at these!!
