Angry Lordco Parts rebuilt rear calipers garbage!


On my second set of rebuilt rear calipers from Lordco Parts.... this set is less than 6 months old and I have a sticking rear caliper.... almost smoke pouring out of the rear wheel (rim hotter than #^(() when I got to work this morning.

You know... I'm paying good money for these #(^* calipers and to have a sticking caliper issue on the original set of rebuilt calipers now the new set after 6months or less is total #*!

$100 a pop and I'm not HAPPY. What if I was on a long road trip and this happened???!

Is it the caliper pistons that are sticking?

Yep. The rim was so hot I could barely touch it!

Clean fluid on install, everything done right. Replacement so far so good. I don't know if that was a Cardone or AC Delco brand rebuild. Gonna guess cardone as the ac delco one I just put on had slightly different casting markings on it.
