Special tool for the rears Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Thu, 6 May 2010 11:29:42 In Reply to: Replacing font and Rear brake pads??, Matt, Thu, 6 May 2010 10:49:24 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The rear calipers need to be rotated as they are depressed. Use of a simple C-clamp will not work.
You will need a brake caliper retractor tool. I have read a number of posts that the $39 Harbor Freight Brake Caliper Tool Kit contains the right size tool, apparently their $19 kit does not contain the correct size.
