  1. My model of MX-5 is: NC__
  2. I’m based near: Ludlow__
  3. I’m looking for technical help or recommendations on: Caliper rewind tool

Hi, I’m just about to do discs and pads on my NC can anyone confirm if I need to take any special precautions mainly regarding pushing the caliper pistons back? Will I need a rewind tool or will just a G-clamp do the job and are the front and rear the same process? Many thanks in advance.

You will need a G clamp for the front. A rewind tool for the back. On NC’s

As above for the fronts, I use a simple tool like below for winding in the rears.

Cheers, any idea if that’s clockwise or anti clockwise?

Clockwise (both sides) to wind in, out it’s obviously anticlockwise :+1:
