Refurb of rear brake callipers - 04/01/2020 15:49
While preparing a repaint of the rear brake callipers, I noticed one of the piston-rubbers is damaged. I happen to have a refurbishment kit.
Does someone know how to remove the piston? For my front Brembo callipers I just used air pressure via a brake nipple and the pistons popped out, but this does not work for the rear brakes.
Second question: there is also a rubber near the lever for the handbrake: between the lever and the housing. This is not included in my kit. Does anyone have experience with replacement and where to buy?
Attached some photo's.
