Rear brakes T350 easy

Postby frund » Fri Feb 07, 2014 7:43 pm

After reading on this site how to fit rear pads I thought you may like to know how easy it is. Handbrake off.
After getting the old pads out you have to put the already adjusted brake piston back to accept the new pads.
As you know the pistons have to be turned to reset them, clockwise drivers side and anticlockwise passenger side. The ideal tool for this is the cutting Disk replacement tool that comes with almost all small electric grinders..sort of Y shaped thing with 2 protruding studs. These studs fit spot on into the brake piston. You may have to put a little pressure on the piston to start with.. almost as if you were starting a threaded nut ..I used a long screwdriver. After that is is so easy.
