Caliper replacement?
Hi All,
I just found out from my Ford dealer that my front rotors are shot (2nd set). I told them not to do anything, and rather than replacing them with OEM parts, I've gone ahead and ordered a set of Powerslot cryo rotors and Hawk pads.
My dealer also said that my right caliper is "not working properly". I picked up my X after the service dept. closed, so I couldn't ask what they exactly meant, but assuming that the caliper is shot, should I replace both sides since I'm upgrading everything else or should I just the faulty one?
Thanks.
Brian

I wonder if your caliper problem is what happened to me, frozen slide pins, however the caliper was fine on mine. In your situation, if you are doing that much, I would pop for both sides. JMHO
