mtenhoven Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I'm getting ready to install new pads on my GTs front brakes. One question though. How should the dual pistons be compressed using the c-clamp/board technique? Individually or at the same time. It seems that if both pistons were attempted at the same time the pressure from the c-clamp would be inbetween the individual pistons. Could one or both of the pistons be compressed at an angle; thereby screwing up the caliper operation later? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rao Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Use an old pad between the clamp and the piston and it is easy. Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGGTLTD Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 You may also be able to depress them by hand. That's what I did.

melayout Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Remember to open the brake fluid reservoir to allow the system to breath and put some cloth around it so anything that overflows is caught. If you do not open the reservoir it will leak through the seals of the master cylinder. I keed I keeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
