Dodge Grand Caravan Brake Caliper question
Dodge Grand Caravan 2002 3.3 Sports
Today I changed the front pads of the grand caravan, I noticed that the driver side pads were almost done as compared to the passenger side which were done only 50%. Still I changed both.
The bottom adapter of the caliper seems to be jammed, lubricated the top one and can push it by hand easily, but the bottom caliper adapter is very hard to move.
Should I force out the bottom adapter and lube it ?
I was able to pull one side bottom adapter and it was different from the top one by having a plastic like sleeve on the inner end, the passenger side adapter with the 50%+ pad seems to be jammed in one place.
Please guide, should this be free or it is normal for the bottom adapter to be hard.
Thanks
