rear brake caliper...there ain't no justice. 700 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be JohnB on  Mon Dec 1 02:12 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I'm beginning to be convinced that no matter what you do an occasional brake caliper will freeze up on you, even if you religiously flush the brake fluid every two years (annually if you live in salt country...is MD/DC/VA salt country?) and check the dust boots for tears when you replace the pads.

Just had to replace the rear ATE calipers on the 87 760T after 260-270K miles.
Still, not a bad run.
