I get it. The caliper pistons were completely seated. There was no crud. I blew out the cobwebs and cleaned them up. The two calipers do not match. I should have looked for the markings - but once I realized the pads were too thick I got side tracked.
Besides - the brakes are working great now! What more proof do I need!
I've got a ton of little things that need to be fixed now. I'm going to start new threads for them though.
Thanks for all the help guys. BTW - On Monday when I go to work I'll do the Italian tune up.
