I just rebuilt my front calipers, including new pads. Have yet to re-fill/bleed.
On one side, the hub/rotor spins freely with only slight rubbing of the pads. Feels "normal" as compared to other cars I've worked on. On the opposite side, the hub/rotor does not spin freely. It spins only with some effort. Both rotors measure the same thickness (a little under 10mm). Will this issue fix itself once I re-fill & bleed or is something wrong? |

I'll give it a go.
As I mentioned, this set of calipers isn't permanent. I will be swapping everything over to 911 brakes in the near future. I just need brakes right now to move the car around and take it to the shop. |
