Buttoned up my '93 FZJ80 this aftrenoon after a full front end, birf included, service and left the truck on jack stands so I could cycle the 'systems' and the transmission. Had changed fluid and I wanted to make sure everything moved and performed as it should.
Ran the truck in gear and all wheels rotated except the front DS. Figured the pads are too tight since I swapped in new rotors and series 100 pads. Pulled the caliper, made sure pistons were free and took a hair off the pad so it didn't fit so tight against the rotor. Fit the caliper loosly making sure the hub could rotate... and it did. However the PS didn't, it was 'stuck' and not moving.
What's going on here ? Did I not assemble something correctly ? Am I being over critical, over thinking something ? I thought all 4 wheels were spozed' to drive ? Will everything eventually free up once there is load on the truck ?
Enlighten me pls...
