Strange Directional Caliper Rebuild

Thanks Marco,

I have not had any problems with them. Just trying to free up the brakes. I have installed springs in-between the pads to help reduce drag. Its my understanding that on Wilwood calipers that others have replaced the square O-rings with a traditional one and that helps the piston retract. I have had these for 7 years or so. I have seen other stockers with the wheels off the ground and the wind alone rotates the front wheels. Mine takes effort to move them.

Thanks for the help.
