Hey Everyone!

I am trying to do a simple brake pad update on my car....but....

The lower calliper pin refuses to come loose on both sides. The top pins came out just fine with a hammer, some WD40 and a bite of elbow grease.

Saying that after about 3 hours of trying i am running out of options and curious if anyone else on here had run into same problem and if so what your solution was?

Thanks! MrT

Can you rotate it?

Like Brad said, are you using a pin punch? It is normally the expanding collar that corroded and gets stuck, you could try driving the pin in a little further first and then back out.
