Ok, some of you are aware of my recent right rear brake problems..
So, anyway, I parked the truck, but drove it to the gas station, and then had the ambulance thing happen.
ya'll know all about that.
SO, I decide to tear into it today, and what do I find, but one non existant brake pad, two slightly scored brake caliper pistons, and two caliper pins that have plenty of grease on them, of which slide in and out nice and smooth.
What does this mean? Stuck/rusted caliper internally??? Something up the brake line keeping the right rear brake applied? I have a feeling it's going to be expensive
I'm uploading pictures as we speak.
Also, the outside brake pad (on the right rear) has 1/4" of pad left.
It is obvious that the brake is being applied continuously, as I fired the truck up after removing the tire and let it drive itself in 1st gear in mid air, and the right rotor could be forced to turn with a hammer (pushing on the studs) but the left rear was spinning about 10-15 mph worth.
So I got the caliper off like I said, and the pins are nice and free. What does this point to? Scuffy? Anyone? Help
