My stock brake pad have finally worn out. I ordered replacement pads and they won't fit. I have the piston pushed all the way in and there is not enought room. The brake pads are EBC sintered metal part number FA84R. Has anyone else had this problem?

i don't mean to be a smart a** but did you loosen up the parking break bolt on the caliper? i did the same thing.

 

Brandon250R is right, you cannot have pushed back the pistons all the way if the parking brake block off or brake itself is still on there. You must take it off or loosen it to actually push the pistons back all the way. Even then it will seem like a tight fit but that is OK because they will wear down to fit real quick.
