Thanks for your response. I think you have it correct. After much measuring, it appears both side calipers are identical, and have clearances for the thin rotors. I measured the clearances from the

That's what I thought. But Don has a late-model BJ8, which should take the 1/2" rotors, right? Sounds like he might have calipers from an earlier car? Moss, for one, shows one part number for all 6-c

If it's only the LF wheel, you may have a hydraulic problem - remote chance it's the rubber hose to that caliper. More likely one or both caliper pistons are seized or very very stiff in the bores -
