bondinho Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Hi all, I've searched the forum for various phrases but couldn't find a guide on how to remove a caliper. Bolts etc are all self explanatory, the only thing I'm unsure of is how do you deal with the brake line? Do you clip it somehow to stop all the fluid coming out? Thought I'd read somewhere about keeping the brake pedal depressed to stop the fluid coming out or have I imagined that?! I can't seem to find it now Any advice appreciated, hopefully doing it this weekend. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 You *can* clamp the brake hose. But to be honest I realy don't like that Idea as it's possible to end up with it kinked. Just undo the line and have a decent container to catch the fluid in. They'll be a bit, but it's not going to be pissing everywhere under pressure.

Mcgoo Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 If you can't get a blank that fits, I put a rubber glove and elastic band over the end and tie the pipe up on the suspension spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondinho Posted November 14, 2007 Author Share Posted November 14, 2007 OK cheers. I'll give it a shot this w/e and get myself a crappy container from Asda for the blatant spillage I'll cause Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
