Minor front disc brake drag

[JAX71224]

On that front caliper, ya want to remove the piston seal located in the caliper bore and REALLY clean out that square groove in there. It.s there that grunge build-up will prevent the piston to retract fully , causing drag. Maybe not always the cause but a common issue........

Copy that! Thank you for the tip!

Old flex(rubber) brake lines tend to fail internally, often creating a "check valve" effect that holds pressure in the caliper.
