Brake pad fitment problem? (4ksq)

I bought new front pads for my '85 4ksq from (*gasp*) Autozone. Hey, my
4k is the beater, okay? ;-)
Anyway, I have compressed the piston back into the caliper such that it is
nearly flush with the caliper itself (it doesn't really want to go any
farther) ... but there is still not enough clearance between the pads for
the rotor! I don't have the part number on these pads with me, but have
verified with other online suppliers that it is the right number.
Has anyone had this problem before? Don't suppose anyone has a new set of
front pads laying around that could be measured? I'd like to be sure I've
really got pads that are too thick before I take the belt sander to them.
TIA,
-Bob
