You take a pair of pliers and squeeze the pin together, while tapping it out with a hammer. It might help to squirt a little WD on it first.How do change front brake pads?
Knock out the 2 caliper pins, remove the caliper, push the piston back in, replace the brake pads, install the caliper, knock the 2 pins back in.How do change front brake pads?
take a hammer and someting that you can push them through with. just bang them through with the hammer and a big flathead screwdriver is what i used on my 91 F150 and just wiggle off the caliper and remove.....make sure u open up the caliper with a big C Clamp so when the new pads are installed u can get it back over the rotor. when done just bang the clip back through the holes from the front back to where they sat originally
