Uneven disk brake pad wear

I have a 1995 Xtra Cab pickup (not Tacoma), 2wd , 4 cyl., single caliper
brakes. The inboard disk pads have worn out while the outboard pads still
have pleanty of material left. What could be causing the uneven wear?

Thanks in advace for any help.

Armand

in general ... the calipers are supposed to be able to "float" and even
out the braking loads. I'd guess your's need lube on the pins that hold
them in place.

Yep.. Check the caliper slide pins. They May be frozen.
