After replacing my caliper o-rings I moved onto the next step of mounting the wheels and brakes onto the main gear legs. I installed U-810 onto the wheels and then the wheels onto the gear legs. Then I installed the calipers onto the wheel / gear leg assemblies. Earlier I had fitted the calipers to the mounting plate and everything seemed fine. When I went to install the calipers this time it was much more difficult to get the caliper slide pins to slide into the mounting plate guides. Eventually I got it all together, but I'm concerned that I may have a problem later. One brake was dragging a little bit. It didn't seem like the caliper was sliding freely on the guide pins. One side seems worse than the other.
Is this something I should be worried about or will it all take care of itself later once the brakes have fluid? I'd rather fix the problem now than wait until I fill the system with brake fluid.
