Thanks for all the great info. The condition of the calipers was not  
bad at all compared to some of the pictures I saw online. I did the  
slide pistons, boots and new EBC greenstuff pads. I did not fully  
disassemble this time. The parking brake cables were done in 2004 and  
look fine. The parking brake actuator moves freely (in 40 degree  
weather). So my stuck ebrake last week was probably just a warning due  
to the very cold weather. We'll see now that everything is relubed..

It's hard to change the habit of yanking the handbrake and leaving it  
in nuetral to leaving it in gear. After I had the handbrake cables  
done, I've been using them as has been suggested to keep everything  
working right.

Doug
