m2pc Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 If you have changed brake pads before, then yes, it is pretty much the same as others. The brake line is held in place by a nut, which you should loosen to make it easier to move the caliper. After that, just use a c-clamp to compress the piston back down (check that the brake fluid reservoir doesn't overflow, I have heard that the stuff is pretty corrosive). I didn't re-adjust the parking brake though. Let us know how it turned out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
