Orion Motor Tech 24pcs Brake Caliper Tool, Heavy Duty Brake Caliper Compression Tool Caliper Piston Tool for Brake Pad Replacement Reset, with Thrust Bolt Assemblies Retaining Plates 18 Disc Adapters

As my cars get newer they get more complicated and force me to update some of my tools. With the advent of electric parking brakes the brake job is an example. Doing the rear brakes on our 2019 Ascent required the retraction of the two servo motors that drive the electric parking brakes (EPB). Subaru uses an expensive tool that connects to the cars computer to do the job. Although crude by comparison this tool does the same job but much much cheaper. Using it you can do both rear brakes in just a little over an hour and save a ton of money. Because Subaru charges over $400 for the same job. Highly recommend for the mechanically inclined.

Fantastic and complete set of tools, that are a, must have for, DIY brake work. With this kit, and YouTube you can save yourself a considerable amount of money on simple DIY repairs otherwise primarily reserved for mechanics at well over a hundred $$$'s an hour. Doing so requires you to have on hand all possibl tools needed since once you take the breaks apart it's too late to find them. This kit helps ensure you have all you may need without incurring a ton of expense. I have found this kit to be very helpful in doing a professional job at a fraction of the cost. Especially when running across stuck caliper piston that are hard to get tools in to press the, piston in without damaging it.

Let’s just say it’s tougher than a mechanic’s coffee. The sandblasted carbon steel construction laughs in the face of rust and corrosion. And the included gloves? A classy touch that says, “We care about your hands, even if you don’t.”Using this kit is so satisfying, you might find yourself volunteering to fix brakes for fun. Just don’t be surprised if your friends start calling you “The Brake Whisperer.”

I bought this kit to replace the brake pads on my car, and overall it did the job. The variety of adapters is pretty good and seems to be compatible with many models. It’s also easy to use, even if you don’t have much experience.However, some components didn’t feel as sturdy as I expected, especially the thrust bolts. They haven’t broken, but they do feel a bit flimsy under heavy pressure. It’s fine for occasional use, but I’m not sure how well it would hold up with frequent or professional use.All in all, it’s a good kit to have on hand for basic maintenance at home. I’d just recommend handling it with a bit of care.

For the price I give it five stars. I’ve used the kit twice for two different jobs works great probably be years before I get to using all the components of this kit, but it’s good to have.

This kit was exactly what I needed in my newer vehicle brakes! Save yourself time and money doing you own brakeswith this helpful kit.

The $20 took you did not think you need but you do. It lacked instructions but if you are going to change your breaks yourself - you should. It need them as it’s pretty self explanatory.

Great tool. Used it for two brake jobs now. Can’t believe I used c lamps for this long without buying one of these tools. I bought it for a caliper that turned in but also so slick for the old school calipers as well
