Hi.

On my '72 GT, the calipers were binding. There was no brake pull and no real
excess heat so I suspected the servo was sticking. When I stripped the
calipers, the rubber seals had gone hard and were locking the pistons for a
short time. No corrosion on the pistons or in the cylinders but it took a
lot of air pressure to get the pistons out.
New seals fixed the problem.

Merry Xmas,
Dave H.
