Dark Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I can't seem to find a way to get the pistons out of my caliper. I brought them to a shop so they could use their compressed air to 'push' them out but no luck. The only thing I can think of next would be to use the master cylinder. I had them soak in some PB Blaster overnight, no change. They only have 644 miles on them. Any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other suggestions? hi yes the best way of getting them out is to pump em out with the brake master cylinder, take the pads out,if you havent already done so, then pump the brake lever, watch which piston that gives first, then clamp that one with mole grips or some thing like that, then pump untill the other piston gives, when it does, take the mole grips off and pump untill they both come out, Parsley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
