Cossie Breaks seized
Hi all. My front passenger calliper has seized on my 2wd 4 pot breaks. I have got the pistons out with alot of blood and tears but their out now. I just want to know about putting them back in. Do i grease the pistons with special grease or just put them back in. Has anyone any advice on this.
Cheers.

My serious advice is don't bother, get a new set.
I did mine a few years ago, new seals etc all was well, but 2 years later back to sticking, mostly down to the crappy piston material ford used.
I just weighed up all the aggro car off road etc etc, new cost £45 each just wasn't worth the aggro to me, but as above says just a little brake fluid will do it, try to keep as square as poss when putting in.
