After taking the caliper off the side at which the bolt wouldnt budge I found one of the two pistons was sized. I dont see how the bolt would effect the piston, maybe the bolt has nothing to do with piston seizing. I never noticed any braking issues when driving, but now the thing just wont move. Even tried a hyd jack to force the piston back and that didnt work. Is it safe to spray some oil/lube around the piston. Its looking like I need a new caliper so would be great if anyone has any ideas to get the piston out. Edited 05/09/09 03:11 PM by Scrotus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
