How to make a simple tool to remove stuck caliper pistons

<< < (5/5)

Laverdaroo:
The same way he has done it. The calliper bolts in half so you can get to one side that holds one set of two pistons and likewise the other. There has to be the room to pull em out or they wouldn’t ever go in…….surely?

Ah! I was unable to separate the halves as I could not get the seals at the time (the ones that seal the 2 halves together)...... ::)

Oddjob:
Isn't the problem with the old SOHC pistons though that they are not hollow, they are fitted with a cap, so how can you use that kit then?

Laverdaroo:
I didnt I greased it out. The 400 was hollow nut presumably after market then, i had no reason to think it wasnt at the time but it had ;aid up for 40 years......
