What brake pads do I buy???

,.. Taking it off the mount and cleaning it might help, but it may need an overhaul.

With my front caliper removed, I can flip it upside-down and reach it up closer to the brake lever so I can pump the lever while watching the pistons.

I'm worried that my caliper doesn't need an overhaul, but it will after I have a go at it. 😁
 
Here's a Real Noisy thread for you to ignore,..

I shall continue my brake caliper rebuild adventures on that thread.
It is actually a continuation.

I am sure to post more ridiculous pictures to waste everyone's data.

I'd load them up with Slickoleum... They'll never stick again!

Yeah, but Slickoleum will attract dust, and I'd need to get it under the gasket/seal to be on the happy side of the seal.

I'd have to pull the pistons to get grease on the proper side of the seal.
