## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this something I really need in my toolbox? I can usually I can tell just by looking, a million miles of driving and always doing my own brakes**
A: Probably not. I don't need it either after 40 years in the trade but as my dealership does vehicle health check videos it is handy way of illustrating brake pad thickness.
