[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 428011, member: 18789"] I’d agree with the first paragraph. Shouldn’t really be an issue especially if you cleaned the dirt off of the splines of the shaft you accidentally bumped into the tube wall. For the brakes, I’d do a quick gravity bleeding of that caliper. The leaking lime probably let some air into the caliper itself. I’d mount the caliper, crack the bleeder screw, open the master cylinder cap, and let the fluid run through it for a minute or two. Close the bleeder, put back the master cylinder cap, and it should be fine. Sounds like whoever worked on brakes previously didn’t tighten the bolt enough, because it should never leak like that. Hah, at least no harm done and problem is solved. [/QUOTE]
