Default Changing disc pads

Having a bit of trouble getting to old pads off my '87. I have the service manual for the '89 but the brakes are different. The inside pads slide out no problem. The outside ones bind on the brake housing.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Just remove the calliper, it's only a couple of bolts. It's easy enough to do. Just like when you remove the front wheel.

Well now I know what was wrong with my brakes before - they sucked. The new pads made all the difference in the world.
