Caliber slider bolt.

What could cause the calliper slider bolt to not want to go in. Got it in but everything is to tight, holds the brake disk out of position.

That rotor is not seated properly. Take it apart and get the rotor all the way on.

Rotor was seated properly. Put those pins in and it throws it out.

I would remove the whole caliper, assemble the caliper and pads correctly then slide it on.

Have 2 lug nuts holding brake disk on correctly but can make it turn by hand.

That is what I did.

Could a seized caliber cause this.

Was the truck operating correctly before this?

Slight pull to passenger side when stopping.

Was thinking I had one going before I started doing all my front end work.

Got it. Pumped a shit ton of grease into the sliders and worked them in and out

Still a little tight. Probably the caliper but I am not spending any more on this thing.

Its the rubber bushing that was on the pin, its stuck in there. Normally you can get them out with a flat screwdriver and/or needle nose pliers..

See the bushing? It should operate just fine without them if you cannot get it straightened out but it will at the very least need removed.

This!! I have racked my brain with this before, until I finally noticed one of the bolts were missing the bushing. Its one of those things that are so simple but you get so aggravated you cant think straight. :banghead:

So they are suppose to stay on the pin.

I've never had them come out with the pin/bolt, but I have had a similar problem on a truck I did brakes on. A new hardware kit containing new bushings and bolts fixed it right up.

Sorry I was thinking of the bushings that clip on the outside of the pins on a different truck.

But I still think your bushings are pushed into the back of the pocket.
