Ok guys, I need some help in a big way. I took off my rear disk and removed the pads from the caliper. I tried to get the new pads on but the caliper was not in far enough. Long story short, I cant get the damn cliper back in far enough to get the pads on and around the new rotor disk. I have a C-Clamp, I have tried leverage on it and nothing works. I have opened the bleed valve while appying pressure, still nothing.
Someone PLEASE HELP...... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif |
It's threaded. Twist it back in.

the rears you have to screw in

Thanks guys. I guess a little research is worth not wasting peoples time. I should have looked before I asked.
Thanks again. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif |

OK, I have screwed the piston in, I have removed the lock bolt from the caliper, I have done everything the directions and tips and other pages have told me to and I STILL cannot get the ******* thing back together. Its like the brake pads are too thick or something. I try to rotate the top part of the caliper down over the pads and it gets stuck. Can someone PLEASE help? Thanks Tripp |
They wouldn't be Hawk pads, would they?
I bought some and had my original discs turned. They barely fit back together. With new discs they might not have made it either. Are you trying to use the shims? |
They were Hawk pads. I called the local auto parts store and took the Hawk pad up there. It was about 1/8 inch thicker than the stock replacement. I got the replacement pads and everything went smooth as silk.
Thanks for everyones input. I am glad that is over now. The rotors look awesome by the way! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif |
