Rear caliper change pads Brake job
I just wanted to post this in case anyone tries to do their rear pads and arent sure how to remove the pads
Theres 2 pins that go thru the pads holding them on.
DO NOT PULL THE CALIPER IN HALF theres 4 bolts that hold the caliper together
You just want to pull the 2 bolts out and pull the calipper off. Be carefull with the solid brake
lines
Tap those little pins thru then use a flat head screwdriver on the inside of the head and tap them out softly w/hammer and screwdriver..dont damage the rubber on the end
To compress the pistons use a c clamp,even if it bites the edge of piston,just be slow and easy make sure its going down straight. if not..improvise or get the right tools
Had to post this...cauz I never seen these pins before
aND.........WHEN I SEARCHED i COULDNT FIND ANYTHING ABOUT THE REAR CALIPER
