Where do I start to answer Bartamos? First I’m grateful for all suggestions from members, even those that may or may not know what there talking about. I did sand just a bit the pads and this did the trick. Discs move with some drag. Of course I will bleed the entire system, it’s routine.. I’m not sure why you seem upset but keep the blood pressure down - if this forum upsets you then you should be done. It’s all fun working on this 49 Chevy truck. I appreciate those members who have the patience to help other members in need. Have a great day.
To Tuts49. I did follow the video which was very helpful. Yes I did measure the disc width and the pads see my initial post. Anyway I have solved the problem. I rechecked the caliper bracket installing correctly with the grease fitting on top as directed. This was not the problem because it was installed correctly. The calipers needed to be compressed which I did. The discs still were tight and barely turned with all my might. Meantime I just slightly sanded the pads and this was enough to get the calipers assembled on the disc, turning with a little drag. Thank you.
