Get's worse - on removing the calliper - one of the pad-hanger pins is totally seized-in. Tried an impact gun - shagged the 5mm allen (hex) socket in the process. It's recessed into the calliper - so couldn't think of any other way of removing other than drilling - it seems to be some sort of chrome-molly. Bloody hard. 20mins of drilling for an inch of progress. Be lucky to get it out without knackering the threads on the calliper - thought about using a (reverse-threaded) stud-extractor - but last time I used one on an an alloy calliper - it split the calliper in two! Looks like I might be after a new calliper in a day or two - anyone got one for sale (RHS)? know which other models it was used on (searching for honda mc16 on 3bay doesn't yield much you see!)

Thanks in advance.

grrrrrrrrr
