Does anybody have any tricks they have found that work for freeing frozen caliper pins on the brembo's? I had planned on changing up the old stock pads with new ceramics, but I can't free these damn pins! I currently have PB blaster sitting on there, but I doubt that will do the trick.

The only thing I could find was a rust belt post, but I'd like to not have to resort to high heat and risk damaging other parts. Does anybody just cut them off and push them out? The hardware kit at the parts stores is only $17.

 

I just had a hard time freeing some parts on my buddies Jeep Liberty (Ewwww Mopar) and my dad pulled out this 3ft solid steel pole and put it on the end of the wrench attached to the socked on the bolt.. Creaked right off with some White Lithium.

 

Would also recommend the new hardware kit.

 

Since the Brembo pins just slide into place and have a little snap in/lock collar on the end of the pin, the next step is a small hammer and flat ended punch.

If you've got them soaking with PB blaster the next thing is to try and tap them out.
Since you will be replacing the pins, you could maybe try grabbing the pin in the middle with visegrips and tapping(and twisting to break it loose) there also.

When going back together, make sure the caliper slot is clean of all that corrosion so the new pins will seat back securely.

Use a small dab of anti-seize or even brake lube on the new pins lock collar.
