I have the the shorter rotors on mine and they gave me a longer one. so when we put it on it seemed to fit fine until we put the wheel on. But the wheel pushed the rotor up against the backing plate this causeing it to bind. and the caliper looked to be seized up again due to not proper bleeding of the system.

So i vacumme bleed them today and got the new rotor (muarrys exchanged it for free even tho it had some pretty big gouges in it. they said it was a common problem.) so yeah i'll take in the new rotor in tomarrow and that should do it with this problem
glad you got it
