Hi, when I ordered my brembo pads they didn't come with any of the shims etc, I only have the 4 pads for the front. Would I need to change all the accessory items (i.e the shims and the metal wire securing the pads together) or would it be ok to reuse what's already on the car (currently I don't know which brand pads are on the car)
An easier way to push the piston back is use the old pad and a c-clamp and slowly turn it to push it in. No special tools needed.
Great option, I've had my wind back tool for 15 years so have gotten great use out of it. How's Saitama BTW?

That's a good tip! Thanks!
That's a really great tip! My caliper is sticking but too late to try this tip. Will give a go next time
Very good video! It's a pity to see so much rust on these brakes. I hoped you would suggest some torque values for the bolts, however.
