Well, the Saga of the Leaky Rear End is almost at a close. Took Mortons almost a month to get it rebuilt, since the one independent shop evidently just up and closed. Cost ended up being $735. A little less than half of that parts, including the big bearing which was $135 all by its lonesome.
Oh, since the pads got soaked in lube, didnt make sense to replace those and not the rotor. Galfer is one of the most recognized brands. I'll swap the dual fronts in a couple months after this pain is a distant memory in She Who Hold the Royal Purses mind. The rotor screws come with a micro encapsulated form of threadlocker. Dry install, that pops the micro bubbles releasing the chemicals. Acts almost as tough as red until you hit it with a torch and hit 100C, then it comes right out.
