These brakes are cracking me up.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
I fitted new copper pipes, flexi hoses
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
& brake callipers all round to my MK1a.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Sailed thru the test with no problems.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
First 100 miles were no problem then occasionally the front left calliper would stick the pads to the disk
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
& it would get red hot.

Sometimes after 10 miles, sometimes 20 or sometimes I could drive 100 without a problem.

Checked the front left caliper
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
& sliders working perfectly.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Put it back together
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
& worked for a while but started sticking again.

I have a good set of MK1A callipers so I gave it to my mechanic who firstly changed the front left.

Went for a 25 mile spin
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
& found the front left was cold but now the front right wheel was quite hot
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
& I couldnt touch the disk.

The problem seemed to have partially transferred to the right.

I got him to change the right caliper last Friday.

Car is driving
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
& braking perfectly
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
but the right wheel is still getting very hot.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
What could it be.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Its really annoying.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Cant depend on it to go for any long spin.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Could the unit
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(equaliser? that sits in the frunk in front of the master cylinder) that the 4 copper pipes go back to be at fault or the master cylinder.

The brakes are good but lack real bite like I remember Toyota brakes on previous Corollas I have owned.

Hope someone can help,
