Member Contributer Dutchy Posted May 15, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted May 15, 2019 The front left caliper is supposed to wiggle as it pushes in the TRAC system under braking. By hand I can moved it by a few millimetres and make it "rattle" Furthermore all calipers on the VF can move laterally over sliding pins. They can/will corrode/clog up with crud over time (if not inspected and cleaned( making thing solid. Left a new one, right a well worn one This is how it looked prior...
