Brake pad retaining pins seized?
I can't seem to get the Brake pad retaining pins out of the right rear caliper. They are not supposed to be that hard to drive out, I have hammered away at both until they are both starting to get flat at the tops. I used PB blaster for 2 days now and they won't budge. I was thinking of grinding off the flatened part down to the caliper body and drill out the rest but they look like they are made of pretty hard metal. What to do ?

Carbide drill bit. Cuts through hard steel like it was clay. Don't drill the holes over size.
