Bill. I got what's there functional but it took bending the pad clamp out of the way as it's probably rusted in. The caliper wasn't moving on the slider pins as they were gummed up. Ate the outer pad and by the time I got to it I decided to replace a rotor that had less than 12K. Cleaned up everything and used a little never sieze on the slider pins and behind the outer pads and it seems to be working great. But it don't look so pretty. Knocked chunks of rust off the cast iron and the seals are slightly cracked. At least the parking brake still works. The right side the parking brake is frozen and the cable is off. Have a Raybestos rebuilt for the right. Waiting on hose. Fearful just trying to take the line apart might lose a brake line. The left side hose wouldn't budge at the caliper. About 22+ years in the NE probably help that.
