supraguye Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Hey Guys, Had my sup parked for a while (6 months to be exact) doing some minor body repairs and upgrades. Drove it a few days ago .... and noticed that after drivinf some distance, the brakes remained pressurized; meaning that the pads continue holding the disc and the pedal was really hard with absolutely no play The only modifications i've done brakewise is that I replaced the pads and installed steel braided lines. Any advise on what my problem could be would be really apreaciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike B Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 do you mean the brakes are binding on? is it slowing you down and heating up? if so it may be a stuck caliper. If they are not binding, work ok, but have little pedal movement then congratulations you have good brakes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike B Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Chris Wilson is one of the best round here on brakes, he educated me with problems I had with my setup. I'd start by checking that the piston in the calipers are free.. if not you know where your problem is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
