Author Message   Sportycraig Posted on Wednesday, March 19, 2008 - 10:23 pm:        I have a 99 m2 and I am rebuilding my front brake caliper. The mounting pin in the front caliper is seized, I have split the caliper so I can hold the pin in my vice but I still cant get it to loosen. Has anyone got any ideas about what to do? Thanks Craig.   Sportycraig Posted on Wednesday, March 19, 2008 - 11:03 pm:        I forgot to mention the allen head is stuffed.   Buell_bert Posted on Thursday, March 20, 2008 - 02:09 am:        If you have all the seals out of it I would gently heat up the aluminum with a propane torch to expand it slightly and spray lube in it and work it out (I Hope)   Buell_bert Posted on Thursday, March 20, 2008 - 02:11 am:        Dissimilar metals are a pain   Sportycraig Posted on Sunday, March 23, 2008 - 06:57 am:        Buell_bert you are a genius. Thanks Craig
