90lumina3.1 Posted December 7, 2002 Author Report Posted December 7, 2002 not if i dont have a big enough c-clamp Quote
Guest RedCutlassSL Posted December 7, 2002 Report Posted December 7, 2002 just go buy one, there really cheap Quote
Chris A Posted December 7, 2002 Report Posted December 7, 2002 You can also use a big pair of channel locks, or a use a screwdriver to push the pads back while the caliper is still mounted. If you use channel locks or a c-clamp you can just leave the old pad infront of the pistons and use that to push the calipers back in. Don't push directly on the piston as it can crack. Quote
