Help with SAAb brakes

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Vintage Saab FAQ : One Thread

Does anyknow if there is a special procedure to change the front brake pads? I have any 87 SAAB and I am unable to put the new pads on as there is not enough room. I pushed the cylinder in as far as it can go but it won't go any further?

Please help

You have to rotate the brake piston (as ou rotate a bolt intoo a nut) Ther is a speciale too do do the job. Check this for a little help: http://216.78.172.244/brake_folder/frontebrakepads.htm
