Car went for its MOT today and failed on both rear drop-links and a sticking front N/S brake.
The drop-links will be no bother, although I fear the grinder may be called upon. The brake is more of a concern as being as vital as they are, its not one I want to get wrong.
Any advice for giving them a quick clean/lube?
I've got a piston re-wind tool, so my plan is to take it off, give it all a clean. The apply lots of copper-grease and white lithium grease and throw it back together and see if thats cleared it. The car has been pulling to the left, so it makes sense that there is an issue on that side.
