I have an '88 Westy that I believe the front calipers appear to stick.
That is, they do not seem to release fully.

Well, today I pulled a caliper, rebuild kit in hand, and upon taking the
thing apart, noticed scratches on the caliper piston. Not really any
significant corrosion on the piston bore itself - but scratches on the
piston. These were Girling calipers.

I went ahead and cleaned everything out, and reinstalled the piston with
caliper grease, which make a definite improvement, but I'm thinking that
having scratches on the piston means its time for new calipers. Is this
a reasonable assessment?

Thought I'd pass this on for folks who may be experiencing the same
symptoms.
