calpier questions please help
Hey all,
having a run of real bad luck at the moment !!. My diriver side rear caliper is ceased... I replaced the rear disks and pads a few months ago. Would I have to replace them again ? also should I replace both calipers or just the buggered one ? ahhh head work !!!

Could it just be the sliding pins (thinking newage rear calipers here mind) that are rusted up? Not sure if the early classic rear calipers are designed in a similar way.
Worth removing the pads and cleaning the surfaces of the caliper and anti rattle plates etc before regreasing with copperease etc.

Godspeed in Bridgend do refurbs/swaps so it may be worth calling Ian there for a price.

Kyle,
If it's a Classic with the single sliders I have a pair in my shed doing bugger all with pads, pins and bolts. There your's if you want them?
I also have a new set of OE Subaru brake piston seals (Part Number 26297FA051) if it's just the pot sticking.
I have stripped mind down in the past and replaced the seals and had no problems since.
