Hey guys,
I just tried to swap out my rear break pads on my '99 GT. I removed the only bolt on the caliper and from what I've read from other threads the caliper was just supposed to swing up but it didn't even with a considerable amount of force. What am I doing wrong? |

If it was that stuck, make sure you lube it with brake lube before re-installing. Possibly taking the pin out and de-rusting it too. Your rear brakes wont work properly without doing so.
