I was thinking about painting my calipers, if should the piston come out. How do I push it back in. I know that on my integra, I can just turn the pisten with a very large screw and it will go back down. I looked at the pistons on the S2K and it doesn't appear to have any way of turning it...anyone have any idea?

 

Take something sturdy and place it over the piston (in the fronts) and take a C-clamp and screw it down. When changing pads I use one of the old pads to place over the piston.

The rears use the screw-type rear piston.

 

yeah, push on it


hey, mine went back in with just finger power

 

Be sure to lube it with brake fluid first. Trak Auto sells a tool that works with a ratchet for the back.

 

I used the edge of a flat file to turn the rear pistons in and it worked just fine. A large pair of slip-joint pliers works well for the front pistons.
