Caliper slider lubing

[thesober]

Anyone here lube their own calipers? I searched the forums but couldn't find a how-to on it. Does one exist or is one even needed if it's easy to do?

I know its done at the 24k intervals but seems like a very good preventitive measure to do more often to prevent the caliper from seizing?

you can get this stuff (http://www.permatex.com/products/automotive/b_lubricants/specialty_lubricants/auto_Permatex_Ultra_Disc_Brake_Caliper_Lube_1.htm) at Canadian Tire in a green tube.

it's easy, you unscrew the pin, clean it with a rag, make sure it's not corroded or pitted, apply the lube on the pin, screw it back in.
