Caliper piston reset tool
Guys,
I am trying to get a caliper piston reset tool to push the caliper pistons back in. I am servicing the breakes.
I saw a tool a mechanic had that looked like plyers with two spoon like thingies at the end.
I am looking on the internet and can not find it. I have found ones for cars. Do you know where to find one that would work for the Harley brakes ( UC 08) thanks.

A screwdriver works just fine. I use the tool located on the left. I slide the top end in between the pads from the bottom (not sides) and push. The width of the tool is the perfect size. You can get them a Harbor Freight. Speaking of Harbor Freight; who has their lift table? HAHAHAHA! Just kidding!

Thick blade putty knife with a beveled end, slip it between the rotor and pads before removing the caliper!
