I am confused by this statement, "the new pads had a lot of trouble going in". Are you talking about the pads had trouble fitting in to the existing calipers or you had problems collapsing the caliper pistons for the new pads clearance for the rotors? If you had problems with both calipers, did you have the master cylinder cap off? Try to collapse with what kind of tool and how fast were you trying to collapse? When did collapse, did you push all the way back to the caliper housing facing? You may well have brake hose problems. Light pressure vs slamming the brakes. I wish I understood the phrase "jamming up" better.</blockquote>
