caliper ovauhaling, I think I got a bad working one Options

[Rayme]

Ok, my rear left caliper's slider don't seem to be working..the wheel stop at the slightess touch of the brake pedal but the outside of the rotor doesn't look "shiny", as if only the inner pad is applying force. Is it a big job to dismantle the sliders and lube the thing up? What the proper technique ?

When u say slider do you mean the rubber pieces that attaches to the brackets and holds the caliper on, or do you mean the caliper piston it self?

If its just the rubber parts you can buy new ones at any auto part store. Its usually the caliper bolts and pins and a caliper bushing kit should be no more than 20-25$ Plus you will need some High temp grease 13$ for a bottle very expensive stuff.

Any more PM

I would be talking about the caliper pins and bolts and bushing, the piston works
