HA! yesterday i saturn came in and i was looking at the brakes....
i glanced at the rear rotor and thought humm that thing has a lot of surface rust... WAIT A MINUTE where the f is the caliper?!?! under further examination it seemed that it snaped off right from the slide bolts and the brake hose was being cut off by a bolt nut and two wahers (custom mod there)
