Rear discs easy haha nearly there

Having done the n/s/rear hub last week the n/s disc was knackered so ordered new discs and pads
I started on the o/s first , my thinking just a pretty simple drop and swop and in good old Geordie tradition "wye aye"
Wheel off ,caliper off ,carrier off slacking off hand brake ,bolt out disc off ,all as quick as lightning
Brake cleaner ,anti seize grease , shoe great condition,new disc on , adjust hand brake torque tight 8 clicks back .
Caliper carrier back on , new pads in piston went straight back
Happy days , well no the bottom plunger on the carrier is seized solid
So I says to myself Censored knew it
Ordered a new one coming tomorrow well me not daft ordered 2 new ones because the n/s got a good chance to be the same

Looking good

Not for long

 All transmission oil replaced

Kind of hoping that this is the source of my slight droning noise as the n/s disc and pads are worn more than this o/s , but I doubt it
I was quite happy plodding away ,parts are coming tomorrow phoned stratstone and they are not stock items do they stock anything Rolling with laughter

make sure the caliper piston is free, otherwise it will knacker your new bits.

For the sake of 10 minutes with some hammerite why not paint the disc centres? They’ll be rusty after about a week if you don’t!
