ezgonzo Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) the brake shown in the video is different however the technique shown in the video apply's to all the brake models, i have a front tech trial and i used the same technique to centre my pads so i can confirm that it works. i will have a quick bash @ trying to give a step by step guide, however forgive me if it's not that great as it's something thats easier to show and do rather than explain but here goes, step 1 : identify which pad is furthest away from the rotor, step 2 : insert a flat headed screw driver between that pad and the caliper just infront of the pad retention pin as shown in the video, step 3 : once the screw driver is in place push/lever the pad against the rotor. step 4 : pull the lever a few times while still holding the pad against the rotor. step 5 : remove screwdriver and check pad alignment, if done correctly the pad that was furthest away from the rotor should now be closer to the rotor and the opposite pad should now be further away from the rotor. if the pads hav'nt moved across enough repeat steps 2 through to 5 again, if the pad's have moved accross to far and the other pad is now rubbing against the rotor just repeat the process again but this time push the other pad in. hope that explains it a little better. ez. edit: YOU DO NOT NEED TO REMOVE THE BRAKE OR PADS INORDER TO CENTRALISE THE PADS Edited September 23, 2011 by ezgonzo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
