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

Hi there, I'm way north of appleton. Otherwise I'd stop in. Anyway I got my numbers off of RockAuto the online website they have a good company based out of WI. The other place I looked up was at Oreilly's. Plus don't quote me on those prices but give those 2 a shot and I think you will be pleased! Today I greased all my slides in the back and no more problems so that was the issue!!!!

Thanks again,

B
