Sean,
You can correct the brake caliper problem, no need for new hardware.
You can find some brake silicone lube at any National Aircraft Parts
Assn store (aka NAPA0 or equivalent. Lube the pins(and nothing else).
If you have 5606 fluid in your brake system and any seeped out at the
caliper that can also cause it to stick, as well as being fire hazard.
Good excuse to change the system over to the better high temperature
fluid.

Anyone else notice this?
I may talk to Matco about aftermarket brake parts.

Thanks Kelly,
I've been using Royco 782 as the fluid with the Viton O-rings from the
start.
I will try the lube and install the new pads.
Seems like a lubed them last inspection in January.
