I had everything set to go today...88 760 wagon on the rack, all the tools, new rotors, pads, ready to go.

Bingo...the caliper wouldn't compress! It apparently was frozen. We tried Channel locks and C clamps, coudn't budge it. I had to put it all back together with the old parts and go home.

Parts house wanted to know If I have 38 or 40 calipers? Who knows? my ATE says 64 on one side and some single digit numbers on the other.

Was there 2 calipers on the 88 760 wgn rear? What is the best place to get them Groton? Do I have to tear everything down again to see which caliper I have?

Should I just buy 2, I was too sad to even check the other side.

Thanks for any help!
