Finished up the brake job and purged the old brake fluid. I had an errand 40 miles up the highway so I looked at it as a good way to brake in the brakes.

I had 4 cycles of breaking before I got on the highway. When I hit 70 I had a vibration in the steering and backed down to 65 were it was not present. I took it back up and down 4 more times where the vibration became less and less noticeable. After a 45 minute cool down the trip back did not have any of the vibrations and I ttok it up to about 85 (I still need tires).

I will let it cool down overnight and check my wheel bearings tomorrow morning.
