Crazy-go-nuts Brake Problems!!! help!

the 86 SPG had some bad sounding Brake Grinding noise today (coming from the Right front) as I was driving around town. I got home and took the pads out and the inner had about 50% wear and the outer was toast...Metal on Metal! ALSO, there is play in the brake disc. Is that usual?
I also dont have the special saab tool you need to compress the piston. Can I use somthing different?
Another really pesky thing: The Brake Components on this SPG are not even a year old. New pads, Rotors and Calipers 8,000 miles ago. I dont brake hard at all when its not neccessary. Whats the deal here?
Thanks for any help
