front calipers
front calipers
2005 ultra,, front inside pistons are sticking again,, if I buy rebuild kits is it like a car just use air to blow the pistons ,,clean,, reseal and bleed?? nothing special about these calipers? manual looks like a normal caliper but have had surprises in the past,
not the complete kit with pistons ,, just the seal kit. the book looks like the calipers split in half,, do I blow pistons out before the split or after?
thanks

pretty straight forward -- I have taken apart the Brembo's yet, but the older style on my 2000 are really easy -- I didn't use air -- I have a ring expander for putting pistons on with and just squeezed them wide enough to pull the piston out with them --
thanks guys ,, and for the link dawg,, all went well the piston pockets were filthy with old assembly lube that had dried up,, both calipers three out of the four pistons were not moving well ,,bought two seal kits ,,rebuilt ,,flushed ,,refill and bled the brakes and all is well again.
thanks again guys
