Thanks David.  Not sure (at this time) which calipers I have.  Do both ATE
and Girling use pins?  The calipers (rebuilt) are relatively new (two
years) and I just ordered new pins from VanCafe/RMW.  Maybe I need to order
a set of pins for the "other" caliper brand.  These pins to not go in, with
a tap or otherwise.  The price for pins are < $10, so not big deal to order
a set of each.

I'll give VanCafe/RMW a call tomorrow.
