Im doing the brakes on my 8600 new piston seals and discs. Previously before taking apart i had to refill with brake oil once a month and only the right brake worked. Left would pump up but not do anything. I pulled right side apart nothing out of the ordinary even the disc wasnt wore much put that side back together and moved on the the left side. Pulled it apart and the piston has been stuck fully out for who knows how long and has wore the outer friction plate about a half inch and the brake disc is wore to the steel. What would cause it to do that so if theres something else im supposed to be looking for. Also on the left side there are 3 springs behind the piston. On the right side there wasnt any. Im guessing someone else must not have put them back in. So will it be fine without springs on the other side.
