^^^ Yep, FC.  A 1989 GXL to be exact (I post in the correct sections 

) so it's got the front 4-pots and the vented rears.  Regarding torching them it didn't really matter to me because I was ditching the rotors anyway.  Is there an easy way to check for sticky calipers?  I imagine I can just remove the pads and have someone pump the brakes while I watch the pistons move?
 
The problem I have is I'm deaf in one ear so I can't hear direction so I have no idea where the sound comes from.  To me, it seems like it's coming from the rear, but you never know, LOL.
