Did front brakes.  Had a really bad shake at around 40mph when braking down to zero... Figured the front rotors were warped.  I believe one was.  The brake pads were fine but, decided to go with Akebono since I have them on all of our vehicles.  Also did wheel bearings and seals since I was there.  No more shake.  I guess this will last another 2-3 years like the last one.  I've never seen a vehicle go through rotors like the ranger does... crazy..lol

Also had the rear view mirror come off... how fun.  I bought the permatex rear view mirror kit which held the mirror for all of 2 minutes before adjusting it and it snapping off.  Ended up using some 3m windo weld.  That stuff is beyond awesome.  Every time I have used it nothing ever comes loose after using it.  It will be my go to stuff if I ever need stuff stuck permanently.  Picture is after the mirror fell...lol
