yep, here is another "shane and his rear brake caliper" threads.
sunday dino and i tried to pop the pistons on my rear calipers, all nice and removed from the car. well, well, well. one piston out of four came out. three did not budge. oh, correct that, one other one moved a teeny bit under c clamp pressure. 100psi got me one piston. tough to do a rebuild with my nice rebuild kits when the pistons are in the caliper. it makes me wonder if my rear brakes ever worked at all... i have nothing to compare it too, and the 914 is light enough that i imagine fronts only would stop the car under normal conditions. so, the struggle continues. there would be pictures, but dino's camera battery died as he was taking shots of his hellhole project. |
