it looks like you still have 2 apex seals on the rear rotor, and you obviously know that the front is screwed.

just got the word back from the builder, the front rotor lost an apex and it took out everything (housing and rotor) the rear also lost and apex.

so in conclusion if your compression looks like either of these videos, start saving
