    Video on how to easily remove brake caliper pistons...

    I decided to tear apart my JDM twin piston calipers to check the condition of the cylinders and piston. My friend and I coudln't come up with any way to easily remove them, so we decided to blast them out with the air compressor. My friend got the honors... Watch your fingers!

    havent seen the vid, but thats the way I was tought to remove the piston from the caliper. Be sure to put a catch in front though. I launched my 1st one 20 ft. Hit it with 190 psi. It was great and the pop scared the stuff out of me

    Yea that's standard procedure although you normally dont put that much pressure to it. And remember brake fluid is poisenous as hell.

    That would be sweet! The more pressure, the further it will go! I bet we could launch the piston 1/4 mile at least. Might get dangerous if you don't have a big back yard...
