LMAO!!!! That sounds exactly like something I would do. That's why I stck to carpentry work and let Homer do the more complicated stuff.
I had a 73 Van one time which I decided to completely redo the fron brakes with all-new parts.
I got it all put back together but couldn't get any brakes.
I took it to my at-then mechanic about a quarter mile away. He very reluctantly agreed to take a look at it since I had started it.
After informing me that I had put the calipers on the wrong sides, he advised me to stick to drinking beer and ridng my lawnmower, both of which he new I had ample expertise in.
He was puzzled about exactly how I managed to get the calipers on backwards, as that's not s'posed to be possible.
