I recently finished replacing the brake calipers, pads, and rotors all around on my Pro5. Everything was good for the most part. But I have two problems. First, the rear driver side is still clamped, its rubbing on the rotor and basically having the same problem I replaced it for. Also, the brake pedal is light, like, dead, until half way to the floor, at which point it's super stiff, and responsive.
I have no idea what I may have done wrong, other than tightening the allen head bolt in the piston housing all the way down in the rear, then loosening 1/3 turn. It's what I read to do somewhere. Please help, I miss driving my car and I really want to get it back on the road.
I was told it was most likely the brake lines causing the clamping, that the lines were collapsed and not letting fluid back up into the system. Of course it could be that the rear driver side caliper is defective, but I already returned the old one for the CORE charge. So if I have to get a replacement, idk what I'll do with the brake line to keep it from leaking.
Please, any advice would help, its well past time for this car to get back on the road.
