A while ago i got a well known Irish garage to swap my rear hubs for discs .
So i was quite P1ssed to find that BOTH calipers they put on were seized :angry:

Decided to take everything apart and have a look

So it looks like they were sitting around for a while before they went on my car
as i took everything apart i found my problem

Turns out both of the floating pins on each side were seized solid (took me about 30 mins to take each one out with a hammer and vice)

Decided that while i was at it to just replace the lot and get it over with
all new and shiny :nice:
