Ford Disc Brakes?

Question

2000 Escort ZX2 - what's the trick to getting the pins out of the caliper? I can get the caliper off, get the disc off, remove the springs, and compress the piston, I just can't get the pins out. They're pretty crusty. I tried vice grips but can't grab it anywhere. I tried a punch and hammer but they don't budge.

Answer 1

get some pb blaster and spray them and let them soak,then try taking them out.
