Van O'White's left front wheel is overheating and grease is leaking out. Pulling the caliper reveals that the bearings, rotor, pads, slider pins are all fine. Retracting the caliper piston with a C-clamp solves the problem ...until the next time brakes are applied.... Should I replace the caliper? Attempt a driveway rebuild per Haynes? any advice respectfully and gratefully considered. George in Grand Rapids. Pedalling to work as per usual. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
