I thought we just talked in another thread that it is possible to over lube some pin designs and actually cause them to not slide properly (Trav mentioned this??). There should be some air gap on the end of the pin inside of pin housing for excess grease to move to. For lack of a better description, I think it is possible to get kind of a hydrolock condition (in this case, a grease lock). Maybe someone else will chime in.
With my last two rebuilt caliper installs from CarQuest, I was disappointed that the silver coating was very porous and they developed surface rust within days. This is not a performance problem, just aesthetic.
Nice to see U.S. made on the pads.
That heat transfer issue mentioned above is also claimed to be a problem with excess use of antiseize on spark plugs. But who knows what is fact or myth.
It looks like you cleaned things up really well, a true sign of an amateur......but a compliment to doing it right. Professional brake jobs rarely look that clean.
