Please help, Going crazy

Redoing brakes and rotors on my 02' Tahoe LS. My caliper WONT fit over the new rotor and brake pads. Dual piston caliper, and got the supposed right parts for the job. What am I missing here?

Did you compress the piston enough? The new pads are probably noticeably thicker than the worn out pads and the piston is probably sticking out too far from the old pads

 

[mmbow702]

Yes, pistons were compressed fully.

What parts (brand, part #) are you using for this brake job?

 

[mmbow702]

First I tried some cheap Amazon bs, but once that failed I went with Autozone 55067DL for the rotor and MKD792 pads.

I lied, brake pads were MKD834

Stumbled across an old post where you helped someone out. Something about Akebono caliper stamped E4527 A50A50? This is the bs on my tahoe. I'm going to assume it's not stock, and possibly why nothing is fitting

I’d take the new ones and compare them to the size of the old ones to rule out a wrong part first.
