   I put new pads on the front yesterday, easier than I thought. Found 1 of the pin plugs
was missing so I went to Tru Value looking for a metric set screw of the same
thread M10x1.00 . No joy but DID find a metric grease zirk of same threads...
     A drop of loctite and I had me plug.

Yank it back out, and put it back in with a drop of anti-sieze instead  cooldude

Yup, that's the last thing you want to make harder to remove.

think I'll be okay. Grease zirk cums out with a wrench;
nothing to strip with a screw driver...
