I guess I need help with everything guys! Replacing the pads on hulkstiva and I can't seem to get everything back together. I'm pretty sure I have manual Aspire rotors and heard there was a difference between manual and auto and that would dictate which pads to use. I mentioned it when asking for the pads but the guy said there was no difference in his system. I've got the pads on and now I can't get the bolts back into the caliper to put it all back together. Any ideas?

Got it figured out. (Thanks Greg!) I was worried it had something to do with the difference in auto/manual aspire rotors/pads. I just needed to compress the piston. Anybody know the deal with aspire auto and manual rotors and if there is a difference in pads you're supposed to get?"Lane, I've been going to this high school for seven and a half years.

I assume you you mean the slide bolts.
I don't know about the Aspire, but the Festiva's slide bolts are different lengths.
They are NOT interchangeable from top of the caliper to the bottom.'93 Blue 5spd 230K(down for clutch and overall maintanence)

Me too! I guess there isn't a difference in what pads you get if you have a manual or auto aspire swapOriginally posted by Pu241 View Post"Lane, I've been going to this high school for seven and a half years. I'm no dummy."

I think the difference is in the caliper and the disk they are thicker.

This is what I was talking about. I thought there was a difference in which pads you were supposed to get too, but they're all the sameOriginally posted by angrygocart View PostLast edited by lanemeyer14; 01-13-2010, 11:21 PM."Lane, I've been going to this high school for seven and a half years.
