I was trying to remove the slide pin from my front caliper and it was frozen in the shim. I was able to get the slide pin out but it ended up pulling the shim out with it. Is there a way to replace the shim with a new one?
The original one doesn't look reusable. The slide pin either needs work cleaning it up, or a new one is probably a better idea.
In case your curious what happened the front caliper wasn't maintained properly as the rubber seals were not existant on either side of the slide pin.. so you can imagine how tough it was to remove it.
Ideas?
