This has me stumped. 2000 F-150, V6 2WD - drivers side caliber sticks - not all the time, but enough to be a problem. So far I done the following:
1. New caliber (not rebuilt)
2. new rotor
3. new wheel bearings
4. new pads
One thing I did notice is that caliber can't be cranked in to allow for the new pads, so I had to open the bleeder. I have the new flex brake line, but I rounded the top fitting off pretty bad (prior to going and buying 2 sets of line wrenches)
So now I can't figure out how to get that thing off.
From what I have gathered from some local mechanics all things seem to point at the flex hose. Thing is how the hell do I get that stupid thing off with the rounded fitting? I'd rather do this myself and save some $ - just spent $600 having new tranny lines put in (rusted out).
Any suggestions? Am I on the right track with this?
