Caliper Rebuild

[Motocrossguy17]

Hi guys im wondering i was looking in the manual and it says to use a compressor to get the pistons out. as im rebuilding them. but not sure how i can get them out as iv got a compressor but its faulty.

cheers

Pull cali from mount, remove both pads, use master cylinder to push them out. Clean excess dirt off before. Probly can only do one at a time tho.

insert rubber tipped air nozzle into banjo bolt hole, apply air, use a rag to protect the piston from flying out and possibly getting damaged as shown above.

similar rebuild procedure.......

He says his compressor is faulty is only reason I gave him alternative ideas.

thanks guys once iv got the old seals out and when fitting new ones do i put grease or that in before refitting piston?

fresh brake fluid only for reassembly, watch the vid
