just like the question askes... my dirvers side caliper isn't siezed all the way... I fi hit the brakes in the car I can't turn the caliper but it is obvious that my new rotor is not being used on that side... 2 monthes and still looks like new!
Than and the rotors have a history of warping!

so anyone know how to fix a siezed caliper?

 

Try replacing the rubber brake line on that side.

 

my next move was to bleed the whole system just to make sure thats ok but i'll try what you said thanx

 

if it turns out the caliper is seized rebuild it and replace the piston, but it's usually as cheap to replace, and easier.

 

any ideas on how cheap?

 

Is it the front calipers? If so, just buy a new one, it's like $12 for one side and $13 for the other. Pretty cheap.
Not sure of your rears, my PBR Rears are $75 each but I just rebuilt them for $6.00 each.

 

yeah its the front!! are you serious?? 12 bucks for that huge hunk of very important metal?? Seems too good to be true for new ones unless you mean used.

 

They are remanufactured. You can get them from Advance Auto, Autozone, Napa, etc... It's like $54 and then you get back $24 from the core charges, so total is $25 or so for the fronts.

 

Yeah, if it's the fronts they're incredibly cheap. The same ones have been on the huge majority of GM cars & trucks since 69. There's probably at least a hundred million sets of those in existence by now. You can either futz around with rebuilding one , for a $10 kit and all the labor of changing it, plus the trouble of rebuilding it; or replace it for $12.50 or so.

 

thats incredible! i'm so glad i have you guys lol:hail:

 

ok heres what happened...auto zone... 21.99 for each caliper... 10 bucks back for each caliper for core and 16.99 for 4 front pads! sound like good deal?

Also when he gave me my new pads they are different from my old ones... they dont have that center clip that goes into the middle of the piston, but when he looked it up, the pads he gave me are what the comp says to get for the car so i shouldnt have a problem right?

 

pop the clips off the old pads they come off

 

of all the stupid thing I could have thought of! thanx for the tip
i really scare myself sometimes
