[QUOTE="broomie699, post: 184074, member: 6807"] So yesterday I started changing my discs and pads. Drivers side went smooth. Got to the passenger side, calipers came off fine, disc went on perfect. I don’t have a wind back tool but I’ve used a vase the past 4 times and worked fine. Anyways I can get the actual piston to wind back enough to fit a pad on that side but for some reason I can’t get the rail to move on the other side. It’s really stiff!!! I couldn’t actually fit both new pads in as one pad was overhanging where the disc slots in. I’m not sure what’s going on. I’ve ended up putting a half worn pad back on that side as well as a new one (temp) does anybody have an idea what the issue is?? [/QUOTE]
