Replacing a seized guide pin in a Brake Caliper @backyardmech

I drive a car with a seized guide pin to show how the car shakes - move the caliper to illustrate how the pin impedes its movement - release the pin , lubricate it and show how the caliper slides properly - then take the car for a test drive with the properly functioning guide pin.
