I just talked to a Porterfield Tech. They said they don't know anything
about a "groove" mod for the R4S Pad. It has pins???
Please help with this. Or recommend a point of contact at Porterfield that
KNOWS Panteras.
THANKS!
The pad has a single pin in the back, which engages a groove in the piston in
the caliper.
So, the guy at Porterfields KNOWS Panteras (or at least Pantera brakes), and
you don't. :>)
But as soon as you take it apart, you will! Make sure you have the factory
shop manual handy and follow the steps, because the rear caliper is a bit
strange and requires unusual procedures to compress the piston without damaging
it.
Cheers!
Mike (who still needs to refer to the book whenever he works on stock Pantera
back brakes, because I don't know them very well either!)
