Passenger front wheel is stuck after brake job.
Passenger front wheel is stuck after brake job.
1985 GSL-SE just replaced the calipers, pads and rotors in front. Also replaced and packed the inner and outer wheel bearings and the wheel seal.
Wheels went on fine. Drove it for a while and decided to bleed the brakes a bit more. Did the rears fine, did the driver front fine. Took off the passenger front lugs and the wheel won't come off. It went on fine, but now she's stuck.
I didn't want to bang on it because I know that everything is new so there's no reason it shouldn't come off. Any thoughts.

You can put the wheel back on with a couple of lugs. Don't tighten them all the way. Then let the jack down and use the vehicle's weight to get the wheel to pop. Once it is off you can inspect it to see what got hung up. Hope this helps.

Rubber mallet against the tire, rocking it by striking top then bottom to avoid loading steering parts. Then look to see what got stuck inside wheel center or outside of hub center.
