You don`t have to replace both calipers, only that one whitch´s "frozen". And if caliper is "frozen" you have to almost everytime change gasgets. Easiest way is to buy repair set (which´s quite cheap) and probably piston. Changing these is easy job... -Kalle- Fran McCormack wrote<3969C640.7639330BnopsamdTraxx.com>... >I brought my '89 900 to a "Speedy" brake shop for new pads.
