99 gt brake problem Options

[Chas_23]

So I hit a curb pretty hard in my 99gt. I cracked a rim and broke my rotor in half. But I got everything bAck to together but now I can't get my brakes to work properly. If anybody has any info to fix this please let me know. I already bled them but there is still very little braking.

Define "not working properly."

Seized? Dragging? Piston won't extend? Soft pedal? Hard pedal?

That said, if you hit the curb hard enough to crack the rotor, you might want to check the condition of the backing plate (rears) and bracket. Bending those would change the geometry of the system.

I agree with ^^ check to see if any of the parts are bent, maybe go to a junk yard and pull some brackets and the backing plate off or even a whole hub and compare it to yours, if you hit the curb that hard and broke your rotor then the damage could have easily spread far from just the rotor, but on a side note also check your sliding pins and maybe even the caliper itself, it is possible to bend those as well if hit hard enough
