One of the old calipers wouldn't fully retract, but the new caliper and Hawk HPS pads wouldn't go over that new rotor. I actually had the rotor turned down some so it would slide over. But since then the brakes don't fully release...either side. In a bit I'm about to go out and check the rear wheels ability to free wheel. I haven't changed the brakes back there yet.
