Good method, I put one of the used pads between the caliper piston and the wrench to not damage the piston, worked great

You are a life saver, and it's so simple, it's one of those things where you go "damn, wish I thought of that, seems so obvious now"

Damage your piston if you're not careful

I live a couple hours from town and would buy a tool if closer but this is great for someone living rural. Cheers mate

I sat on my concrete driveway at 1 am for about 10 mins before i finally found a way to push it in a little bit so I could get it with the pliers 😂😂

That’s a new one on me. But mind you thar was done in a fully kitted out workshop. And the calliper was resting on a gearbox transmission jack. That’s not something your average home mechanic will have at his disposal. Not outside the house. Neither will they have a modern workshop. As within this video.

Dumb. Just get a c clamp or buy the 5 dollar tool! cheaper than replacing an entire caliper!
