rite mate you will need a air line to pop the pistons out, once the pistons are out you can thyen see how the job is done. when put ur pistons back in to the caliper make sure you have plenty of brake fluid around the seal so it slips in easier!

so the pistons come fully out

i popped mine out with a tyre foot pump on my brembos very easy but be carfull as they come out fast!! a brake piston compressor was handy too!!

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

SO i can use a simply foot pump to carefully pop them out

aparantly so...

the only problam with that is geting a good seal, with an air line u just pop it in when the brake hose gose and pull the trigger, make sure you have a rag in the caliper to catch them. when you put the air line to the caliper only give it short bursts as it wont take them much to come out!

i used a plastic fooball pump adaptor and blew down the braided line easy!!!

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

So do i put it in the goodridge braided line thats still connected to the Calipers or disconnect it from the caliper and put the nosel on the calipers is self..?

 

[SEATCOOBER]

just pump down the braided hose thats connected to the caliper less chance of leaks, the less you disturb!!!
