Caliper Service Kit,
by AJ, 2010-07-19

On a scale of 10 I would give this an 8. The discs it has doesn't cover all car models adequately enough but with a little modification of the main adaptor head, you can make it work for some off brand vehicles. The quality of material seems to be high with a decent anti-corrision finish. Definitely worth the $30-$40 price range it's sold at.

 

Saves a ton of time,
by Mark M, 2010-06-14

Anyone that does their own brakes should have one of these.
No flash, no decoration, just brutally simple and fantastically useful.

 

Works for 07 Mustang,
by Smilla, 2010-05-17

I used this for my 2007 Ford Mustang GT after the dealer recommended tool failed to do the job. This kit included the right fitting to go on the T handle, and it simultaneously rotates and compresses the caliper piston when you turn the handle. Note that I found I had to rotate the collar every few turns to keep it snug against the piston, because the piston compressed faster than the T handle advanced into the collar. Without a tool like this, the job would have been impossible, because Ford's design makes the pistons incredibly difficult to compress, and I couldn't apply enough pressure by hand with a ratchet to compress it while simultaneously rotating. Note that I found that even with this tool, I needed to use a pipe to give myself enough leverage to rotate the T-handle. (But this is Ford's fault. The tool worked as intended and it was cheap!)

 

Not for Vipers,
by Grady Cowardin, 2010-05-16

Not that it is advertised as working on a 92-02 Dodge Viper but I was hoping it would. Pins are a little wide to line up. Seems well made for China manufacturing. Case is nice.

 

A Necessity for doing the brakes on a VW,
by Tom J. Schuler, 2009-12-26

Local VW dealer wants $400 to do the rear brakes on a VW Jetta. Impossible to do without this tool, and it worked great. I will do all my brakes from this point on...this is something most people could learn to do themselves and save big $.
