My '67 Rogue was an original 4 piston disc brake car, and several years ago I replaced that setup with the big 3" single piston jobs from a '75 Matador. Ever since then, the front calipers seem to hang up. I just installed new calipers and pads, the brake hoses are good, and the master cylinder was done and resleeved a few years ago. It's the original 4 piston master cylinder. Anyone have any ideas? Tom Jennings wrote...... Yeah, with the wheel off, turn the rotor and bonk the caliper back and forth with a rubber mallet. If you can adjust the position of the caliper so that it doesn't drag, it's just sticking on the caliper brackets. Remove, file, sand, smooth the surfaces, a little bit of grease (mostly to keep water out). Maybe the wedge lock is too tight... snip Wow great information and timely too !!! I am just about to mount those parts on the car and I've been wondering what to do with them to keep things functioning correctly. I painted everything with caliper paint (not the rotor to pad surface). I did paint the wedge, bracket and spring pieces and wondered if that might be a mistake. Maybe I should clean the paint where the surfaces ride against each other and use some synthetic grease to keep things friction free. I chose red paint and I've got some Redline CV-2 synthetic grease that by golly is red in color also. Armand
