Frozen Calipers 700 87

posted by  someone claiming to be Todd Davis on  Sat Nov 3 17:35 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I noticed that my brakes on my 745T where making a grinding noise and decided it was time to service the brakes. I began to service the rear brakes and noticed that the passenger side was ok but the drivers side was worn down to the metal. I was able to push one the the pistons in on the pass side and none on the other side. I went to home depot and bought a lrge C clamp and was able to push the pistons back in. That is as far a I got today. I am wondering if there are any rebuild kits for the 745 rear brakes. I checked IPD and all that they have is the ones for the 200 series ATE. Is there any thing that I can do to loosen up the rear calipers or fix them?

Thanks

Todd Davis
