How do you get the piston bake inside the boot on a front brake caliper?
You have to have a air compressor to do it. Take an air gun and insert it in the hole on the caliper were the brake line goes to it. Then take the piston in one hand and start it in the caliper while you are blowing air into it and the air will push the rubber boot out around the piston as you push the piston in. It is alittle trickey, But that's how you do it.

AnswerRaise and support the vehicle w/ jack stands. Remove the front wheel assemblies. Remove the two bolts holding the brake caliper onto the hub assembly. Slide the caliper off of the rotor. Be sure to compress the caliper piston back down, w/ a c-clamp or caliper piston tool. Install the new pads, reassembly the caliper to the hub assembly, properly tighten all bolts. Reinstall the wheels and lower the vehicle. BE SURE TO PUMP UP THE BRAKE PEDAL BEFORE MOVING THE CAR! I say that from my own personal experience....Good luck!
