2G Brakes Rubbing

[gsxbrando21]

I own a 95 GSX and I just replaced all the pads and rotors. I took it for a test drive and everything went smooth except for the fact that it sounds like the pads are rubbing against the rotor. It is only on the driver side rear. I removed the caliper and noticed the outer pad is rubbing against the inside of the rotor. The pad also has some wear on the inside as well. I checked the wheel bearing for any play and it was fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

The piston could be semi stuck..A caliper rebuild might be in your future...

It's when I take a right turn for the most part. Could a siezed caliper still be an issue?

It sounds like a seized caliper. My caliper was seized so bad once that the rotor was red/blue hot from the rubbing. If that rubbing is producing heat it might cause other damage.

Alright thank you, I'll look into it. Will update with results..

i just did the same thing on my 97 gst and the rear drivers side pad is having the same problem. Only difference is its rubbing on only the outside.
