    Just serviced the pilot brakes for the first time. Noticed that the
    inner pad wore faster that outer on passenger's side. Tried to take
    out sliding pins. One came out easily. The one with a rubber ring at
    the tip took quite some force. It would appear that the rubber ring
    has swollen for some reason and it seals the sliding pin hole with
    force. Not sure why it did that since the lubrican is the original
    from factory (This is my first brake service). I could file down the
    rubber, to make it fit more loose, or I could take if off permanently.
    Does anyone know what is its purpose?

    I would not modify the part. If it is defective, pick up a new one at a
    dealer. You really do not want to play amateur development engineer on
    your brakes.

    --------------------

    Don't delete any parts. (HONDA never puts in anything that's not
    necessary).
    If the slider pin is corroded and wont' fit, replace it. SEARCH google
    (possibly google groups) for 'honda slider pins' and you'll find LOTS of
    info. Be sure to use the correct lube or you'll have similar troubles in
    the future. See also www.tegger.com for how to fix RUSTY brakes. Your
    diagrams and part numbers are at www.slhondaparts.com

    Mentioning your location and mileage would be a great help too.
