Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Maintenance and Repair / July 2007Caliper pins
A friend called. He has a Grand Marquis, I believe it's a 2006 with ABS. Said a caliper pin shattered on him Saturday while hand-tightening it. Got replacements (for $100!) and they gave him two different-sized pins and boots. We can't find any information on which pin goes where, i.e. whether the thinner pin is on top or bottom. Five dealer mechanics gave five different answers (to an A/B question, go figger), and my EBSCO on-line source gives no clues. So does the big pin go on top or on the bottom?

This could have happened to me: he's had them apart and never noticed the difference until the new pins. He only noticed on the new ones because one pin is fluted on the new ones. So the other side is probably put together with whatever pin fit wherever. SignatureHappy Birthday, Canada!

The actions of the United States Congress are completely consistent with the actions one would predict from such a group. |
