its obvious if its screw type from looking the end of the brake piston.
it you try to be a hero and force it on a screw type you will bust the thread and possibly the seal. then might as well rebuild your caliper.
lol
you can't if you ****ed the thread
lol
seen it happen many times
where people call up,
them: i need a new rear caliper.
me: why?
them: becuaise it's a screw type not a push type piston, and i didn't know that.
lol
lol.
its screw type because the handbrake cable turns it. good advice destrukshn.
exactly right. Be careful turning the piston back in guys it takes some force.Be firm not angry about it ! Try to find a very large flat head screwdriver or something that will fit nice and firm in on part of the groove then rotate CLOCKWISE as said before.
theres a special tool we use at honda, its a a special type socket that fits onto a 1/2" drive ratchet and turning it clockwise will push the piston back
