I know this is off topic but was wondering if anyone else has had a problem with there disc brake pads not wanting to slide in the holders? Got a 2000 Silverado 2500 6 liter auto truck and just went to autozone and bought new rotors pads and the hardware kits for them and the pads don"t want to fit onto the slides that hold them in, On this truck there is a bracket that fits over the rotor that holds the pads.Then the caliper slips over this, On this bracket there is 2 little sheetmetal deals that fit into the bracket and then the pads have slots that fit over these sheetmetal deals on the bracket and then the whole thing slips over the rotor then the caliper slips over this and all gets bolted to the axle. well the problem is that the slots in the brake pads don"t fit over the sheetmetal deals and if you force them on then the pad wont float like it should and this would cause the brakes to drag. Called AutoZone and they said all the part numbers were right on the parts I bought and to just file the slots out untill they fit? Anyone else have this problem? Just don"t seem like you should have to file on these to make them fit! Bought there premium parts not the cheaper ones thought they would be better in the long run? Did talk to a mechanic friend and he said he has had to do this before? I never have and have done brakes on everything I've ever owned! Just wondering if anyone else has had to do this before? Thanks Bob

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
