Ive read all the other problems on here dealin w/ the calipers n ****. And i think mine is something like this other dudes. Well my one caliper core doesnt want to retract back.. My question is does anybody know where i can get one of those tools that spins it and pushes it back in?? ... or i might be too late cuz i had my dad change my brakes over the summer and he said he had problems with it ...but he didnt have that tool so i wonder if my caliper is all messed up now.

 

Any auto parts store would have one. Shucks, Autozone, Napa, ect.

Yep - AutoZone does a tool loan program too. You tell them what you need, they give you the kit. You leave a deposit equal to the value of the kit (here it's about $40), and when you bring the kit and your receipt back, they refund you the full deposit.

 

one of mine wouldn't turn in - it would spin but not retract, or screw in. I was using needle nosed pliers. as a last resort I spun it Counterclockwise a little, and then when I went back clockwise it "caught" the treads somehow and screwed in. Maybe I just got lucky but it worked for me.

 

i used a c clamp for mine...

take off the resivoir cap to relieve pressure

 

I hope he is talking about the rear calipers when he talks about spinning them to retract. You are right on with the C clamp on the fronts or even channel locks.
