Hi, I have been stripping my brake callipers (4l0) this morning in preparation for powder coating. The main body is fixed to an anchor bracket with a pin. It looks like this allows the calliper body to "float" as the pads wear. The pin only came out with the assistance of a 2lb hammer and pin punch and I'm guessing that this should be an nice slip fit. Is this correct?

Any thought welcome.
