Changing brake pads...drivers side rear all OK...
Pass side rear....caliper assembly is too far inward. Plenty of room between piston and inboard pad, but the outboard part of the caliper assembly hits the outer edge of the outboard brake pad...interferes by 1/16-1/8".
Need to pull the caliper assembly outboard, but it will not move in or out...rotates freely on the pivot but will not move in or out.
Suggestions solicited.
Thanks, Bob

Use much force. It sounds like the caliper is partially seized to the slider/adjuster assembly.
