Default GD mother fawking brake :mad:

well i just got done buying a whole new brake setup for the front L for my car...i installed the bish, and i go to turn the rotor and bam, it hasnt change... so i called my boy and he said to bleed the brakes...so i did..same shiit..i checked the bleed line and there is no pressure coming out of it. i checked out the MB and loosened it up and its still stuck...any ideas?

ok here is the story...pay attention

when i first bought the car back in feb 02, i had my dads friend come along to check out the car to make sure everything was striaght. the guy did mention that he did something to the MB cylinder and that i might want to get it checked b/c he "ghettoed it" well all this time goes by and shiit starts to lock up on me. after i installed my old caliper (for the 3rd time) i tried to release the pressure from the bleedline, which it had no pressure, so i then loosened up the MB cylinder. nothing happened either, but a shimmy fell out..:wtf: thats right a shimmy...from my assumtion and my dads friend is the guy never used the correct tool when changing it, which it is a bish to do...but anyhow, he also showed me that my RR rotor is hot as a mofo also..so the FL and RR work together along the FR and LR so you have even braking. anyhow if you know how a MB cylinder works, it wasnt releasing the fluid from it which was causing it to say applied. when heated the liquid expanded which locked the side up, when driving for a long period of time w/o using the brake, the liquid would contract and open it back up so it wasnt locked anymore....get it?
