when im changing my brakes you know that pistion looking thing that pushes your brakes to the rotor how do i push that back?

 

c clamp

 

if i dont have one of them what is a other way to do it?

 

this is how you push the piston back in, insert a BIG flathead or something similar and turn clockwise to get the piston back in

 

so thre is no place to trun the piston back in its flat anyone know what to do?

 

c clamp is the easiest way....ive heard of the flat head idea...but i dont know how that would work..

he just told you how !!!!

make sure theres a rag around the MC when doing this.

 

its so hard to push it back in like it doesnt want to go is that because i have the parkingbrake on or do i have to bleeed the brakes or anything because it does not want to move

 

theres no where to turn it

 

get project Mu brake, they'll save your life

 

for the rears you turn it to get it back in. You do NOT want your ebrake on when doing this. If you are doing the front, you really should just go get a c clamp, that is really the easiest way to do it. You wont be getting it in by hand.

Helping people today cause I'm snowed in. Third person today.

Do not bleed your brakes. It will be much more work to get the air out of your brake lines after you finish your brake pads then to just go get a C-Clamp or Brake Service Kit.

Do yourself a favor and get a large C-Clamp from Home Depot, Sears or a Brake Service Kit from your local auto store.

Here's how to use the C-Clamp:



Here's a Brake Pad Service Kit (Same function but this tool goes on the inside of the caliper):

ok how do i get the air out of my brake lines and how full should i fill the brake fluid uo?

 

Next time try to find some guides before you attempt anything on your own.

FRONT BRAKES - Use the c clamp, and open the master cylinder cap. If you're to compress the piston, you've gotta move fluid. If the cap is on, you won't be moving shitl.

REAR BRAKES - Use a screw driver and turn the piston. Check on team-integra.net for the direction you need to turn it.

Let's hope you didn't try to use a c-clamp on the rear brakes.

 

iv done brakes befor just not on the teg everything got worked out. i let brake fluid out pushed the piston back in hooked up the brakes then i let air out of the line.

thanks for all the help guys

 

use a C-Clamp for the front to push the piston in. Use the screw driver method to turn the piston in on the rear calipers.

There is no other way to push those pistons in on the front calipers. Go buy a C-Clamp.

 

not true i pushed in my hand after bleeding the brakes and everything is working fine and hooked back up

 

good job jeshy

 

yea c-clamp, there like 10 bucks or so at auto zone
