hatchsub Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Hey i just got new front loaded calipers for the front of my EA81 sedan. How much wiggle room should the pads have? Cause i can barely get one of em to fit in the bracket. I know with my camaro i had to grind the back plate of the pad to give it a bit of clearance to work correctly.

I've seen some pretty tight fits before, just make sure the pins are lubed so the caliper halves can move freely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchsub Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 Thanks Rob. I think im going to do the front brakes on Monday after i get the axles redone (again!). I just finished doin the rear disk conversion and you know that something is wrong with your front brakes when you can lock your rears but no matter how hard u press...not your fronts. But....rear disks are AWESOME!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
