Hello I just swapped my rear brake pads and rotors for new ones on my 94 gt. One side turned out like brakes normally do new, the wheel turns by hand with a little resistance. The other side is a different story. I could not turn the wheel with both hands at all and I had to pound the caliper to get it on even though I had the piston pressed in all the way. I tried the old rotor and it was the same so its not the new rotor.
-Can a poorly made set of brake pads cause this from being too thick? -It looks like the outside pad is too thick, that's my guess.... I got the pads from rock auto so I can't just take em back..... -ANyone experienced something similar? thanks, Brandon |

Have you put the car on the ground and tried the brakes out yet?
