300 ex rear brake pads?

[robbo1]

Im putting new pads on and I need some advice on setting brake piston back in bore to make room for new pads...is it like a car where you have to use a c clamp and force it back in or do you have to rotate the piston back in...I tried the c clamp and the piston wouldnt budge. Any info greatly appreciated:confused:

i have a 300ex and here is what you do

first take your rear resovoir cap off for verflow if any at all.

take the caliper off of the mounting bracket

take the 2 screws that hold the pads in out

take the pad that isnt against the piston out and leave the other one in

now take ur c clamp and put it on the old pad and gently make the c clamp push againt \st the piston

once the pad is as far in with the pad against it take the old pad out and test fit the new pads

if they will go in just go backwards from steps 3

if they wont take the c clamp and put it against the piston and juss make it go in gently not to fast or u could break something

if you atre worried go to your honda dealer and pick uip a clymer manual they r the best
