[QUOTE="Yardsale , post: 538046, member: 58988"] ’01, Job 1, 4WD So, I check the brake pads (front) and the left side have uneven wear. The inner pad is about gone and the outer is almost new. (Pads on the right side are evenly worn with about half remaining.) I removed the pins, cleaned and greased several months ago and they still move freely. I checked for an obstruction that may be hindering the movement of the caliper. I found a couple of possible areas where the caliper may contact the spring clip and filed them smooth. I can’t think of anything other than sticking pins and some sort of obstruction. Any other ideas? [/QUOTE]
