I just finished replacing my front rotors, calipers and seals on my 2003 Newmar Kountry Star KSCA 3740 and I noticed when I removed the front trailing pins they were very easy to slide in and out, however when I replaced them with the new ones that came with the calipers they seemed very tight.
Is this how they are as a replacement until they get some wear, I don't want to button everythig up until I hear from one of the experts.
Thanks for any help or advise you can render.

I had one of the calipers lock-up which caused damage to the rotor so I decided to replace everything.
Since I have not received a response from my OP, I put everything back together and did an extensive road test, so far everything OK.
