After 3 days worth of a PB Blaster soaking, the pins popped out- lesson learned, lots of patience and PB Blaster!

I've started using Liquid Wrench instead of PB Plaster citing this test data.

Without separating pin from caliper, I am at a loss as to how you would be able to remove the pads. Fronts, of course are a whole different story.
Sorry didn't know my awd used different pads. My car uses the girling type. Can see the problem with the others after looking at pictures.
