Default Rover 75 Rear Caliper N/S wanted

Hi everybody

Just wondered if anybody has a decent N/S rear brake caliper as mine seems to be sticking even after cleaning up the carrier.

cheers

try pm'ing mickyboy, posting in the wanted section

Removing the piston, cleaning it and reassembling may solve the problem

I had the same problem when I bought my 75. The guide pins were bone dry and had black gunk caked on them (I assume burnt rubber....?). I checked the piston could be pushed back, then cleaned the pins up and lightly greased with brake grease. No problems since (touch wood).
