I have a 1974 R75/6 w 30k miles, just replaced the Piston and seals of the single Front Brake as they were sticky rusted and very old. Used some 2500grit SP to clean up the cylinder and had a hard time getting the Piston back in but it slid in slowly under pressure with Dot 4 fluid. got the top seal laid down okay. Finally got the Bearing Pin in after reversing the Brakes pads(duh).. BUT now the wheel is sticking / something is grabbing it..  Should I go back and Grease the Piston?? and re-insert?  Is there something else I should watch out for? Something keeping the Piston too far out?
