Do both of these tools accomplish the same task? (Compress the caliper piston for inserting new brake pads.) Here's the deal. I have a new set of Raybestos front disk brake pads for my 1991 F-150 2WD. I've had them for a while meaning to install them, but I'm not exactly sure how to go about it. I'm not familiar with Ford front disk brakes, with the tapered pin that has to come out.
Everyone say's it's "easy", and perhaps it is....... But only if you've done it, and I haven't. I'm just looking to replace the front pads for now. And if either one of these tools will help make it the slightest bit easier, I have zero problem buying either one. Having something better than a C-Clamp has to be the better option, because I'll be doing this myself, with no help. I don't have anyone to, "hold this while I hit that".
If anyone has dealt with these early 90's Ford tapered pin front disk brakes, I'm all ears. I can't seem to find a You Tube video pertaining to the 1991 F-150 front disk brakes.
