    GQ Brake Pistons.. now with video

    Hi Guys,

    I drove home and jumped out of the Trol after hearing the brakes squeeling and the rims were so hot I could not touch them the brakes must of been draging on the discs.
    I guess your not supose to pump the brake pelad when there are no pads in there as i done that and the piston poped out.Should I be able to move the piston in and out by hand ( I tried the other side one and I cant ).
    If the piston is so tight how does it retract.
    Is there some way to adjust the amount of drag on the disc, the Greggory manual talks of using a spring type tool to check the tension and says to adjust the drag...

    Here are pics of the parts. Are they stuffed. Am I better of finding some more from a wrecker maby..





    Any advice much apreciated.

    Ray
