Brake Caliper Pistons (score: 1): Author: Jim Henningsen <jdhenn@cfl.rr.com>; Date: Sat, 19 May 2001 21:39:42 -0400; I just removed my calipers and noticed one caliper has the pistons installed in reverse. The cups are pointed inward instead of outward to the brake pads. Any ideas on how this would affect braking?; /html/6pack/2001-05/msg00193.html (6,882 bytes)

If that were the case then the area in the cup would have such a large amount of air trapped inside. It would be absolutely impossible to bleed the front brakes effectively.

Re: Brake Caliper Pistons (score: 1): Author: Jim Henningsen <jdhenn@cfl.rr.com>; Date: Sun, 20 May 2001 08:22:20 -0400; Yes, I noticed that the front brakes seemed to be doing all of the braking. That's why I decided on a complete rebuild of the system. Would the "reversed" caliper piston cause that prblem? Thanks Jim; /html/6pack/2001-05/msg00200.html (7,787 bytes)
