Well I have been trying for a week now to try to loosen these rusted-in brake pad holding pins. Every day I give them a little spray with PB Blaster, and then try to wiggle them loose using vise grips. These suckers are really firmly in there! I have some Aero Kroil coming in the mail, and I will try that when it arrives, but I can't think it is going to be significantly better than the other stuff. I can't apply a torch without cooking the brake fluid and various seals, but I do have access to liquid nitrogen, and I was wondering if I froze the assembly down it might just loosen things enough to allow the penetrating oil in to do its job. Anyone any other ideas? I really hate to take it to the dealers, or have to buy a whole new set of calipers. Thanks. Giles..
