Hello everyone,
I finally got around to checking the driver side front brake to see why it sticks all the time. Upon removing the caliper I noticed that the pistons are severly rusted and corroded to the point that they don't move at all! I have already purchased replacement calipers to rebuild but need to know how to hook up my air compressor to force out the pistons. I assume that it isn't to difficult and before I wasted more time figuring it out I thought I would ask the experts. What is needed and how is it done? This is my first attempt at disc brakes and don't want to mess things up.
I already have the rebuild kits from GT Source. As always thanks in advance for your help!
