Rear Brake Pad Inspection and Replacement

  1. Mount the commercially available brake caliper piston compressor tool (A) on the caliper body (B).
  1. Press in the piston with the brake caliper piston compressor tool so the caliper will fit over the brake pads. Make sure the piston boot is in position to prevent damaging it when pivoting the caliper down.
    NOTE: Be careful when pressing in the piston; brake fluid might overflow from the master cylinder's reservoir. If brake fluid gets on any painted surface, wash it off immediately with water.
  1. Remove the brake caliper piston compressor tool.
