Sticky calliper

Post by scotty73 »

Checking my rear breaking system today i noticed a very worn pad on the offside so ordered more, then i tried removing the pads got them out with dificulty and one of them is shot to bits and the calliper would hardly move back in.

Started on the nearside and calliper moves no problem and pads came out easy... Is there any way to free the calliper up? i dont really want to put new brakes on with the calliper as it is but if the calliper is shop i have no choice. :?

Well for now i've put the old pads in until i decide if it needs a new calliper... I need to decide quick though the pads on the offside are pretty low.

Oh and the only way i could get the piston to go back in was with a crow bar .
