June 1, 200718 yr I`m having trouble with the front braking system of my recently acquired 1982 subaru gl wagon, makes a lot of noise and the right front wheel brake keeps jamming, don`t know a clot of this car so if anyone be so kind to offer advice,,, many thanks:confused:
June 1, 200718 yr Step one, remove wheel and inspect brake. Bet you need front brakes, and from the sounds of it possibly a stuck caliper or shot wheel bearing. nipper
June 1, 200718 yr Probably no material left on the brake pads. A note here when installing new pads. Rotate the caliper piston clockwise, do not compress with a clamp.
June 2, 200718 yr wait... what about wheel bearings... Im confused... Is this definatly a break problem because it does sound like a sticky VERY STICKY CALIPER
June 2, 200718 yr wait... what about wheel bearings... Im confused... Is this definatly a break problem because it does sound like a sticky VERY STICKY CALIPER Never have a very bad wheel bearing? Besdies the car is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down there, and i'm up here. May be a combination of things, may just be pads.:-p As long as he is there pulling off the wheel he should check everything. nipper
