2004 Ford Excursion 4×4 5.4 gas
\nClosing in on 200,000 miles
\nJust finished drivers side brake pads and rotors, calipers not sticking, seem fine…
\nJust cracked open the passenger side and WHAT A MESS!!!!
\nThe pads gone, the rotor is is toast and the caliper has a small chunk out of one of the pistons!
\nThe caliper still seems to function, but this side has been a problem before, so I have just changed the caliper.
\nMy question is: since I have already put the drivers side back together, do I need to take it back apart and replace the caliper there as well, or it is likely that it is okay?<\/p>\n
***Note
\nI bought the truck with very low miles. It was a rental and I was told it had been wrecked and repaired on the passenger, which is where my problem is, otherwise @ this point, this will be the first time I have done anything more than turn\/replace rotors and
\nreplace pads.
\nThank you for any advice, and I can get e-mail@ XXXXXXXX@XXX.XXX (please no spam or anything other than an answer to my question, my kids see this!!! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
