    of course you can simply overfill (add fluid with worn pads, then replace after pushing back in the pistons without removing excess fluid

    Re: Safety wiring

    you don't want gouge marks on pins from the constant vibration of pads - - the pads need to slide freely - case hardened is very tough...
