Hey Vince, 09 Lincoln mkz again. Brakes this time.
Are there any special tricks to compressing the piston back into the caliper?
I'm working in an unheated garage at 10F so I might have missed something, but the piston seems to want to turn as it is pushed in and I don't want to rupture the boot...?? EDIT: Duh, it's supposed to!
I found a Youtube clip online, so I think I'm all set! (For anybody reading along, the pistons turn in as you push. Driver's side turns in clockwise, Passenger side CCW)
Thanks,
Tim
