ok, BOTH are locked up? and with the bleed screws open, nothing moves... pull the pins, and the springs, and get a prybar in there, to reef on the pads, and spread them out, then remove the calipers, and either rebuild them, or replace em.

I agree with vs. I have a very large screwdriver that I use to drive between the pads and rotor. It souunds scary but the rotors are very tough and will take the stress. But open the bleed first in case there is any fluid in it.

the rotors I dont give a crap about, I'm going to replace them anyways. my worry is the caliper is clamped down pretty damned hard, I'll try to open the line again and see if I can get them moving again. I really dont know why or how this happened really...it's not a level surface where the car is sitting, it's a gentile slope. weird. I'll try movin them and report back. Train time this morning/afternoon so it'll be this evening...
