You need to "turn in" the caliper pistons- Posted by IrieTom [Email] (#1032) [Profile/Gallery] (more from IrieTom) on Mon, 11 Apr 2005 15:03:37 In Reply to: Problem in replacing front brakes 1984 SAAB Turbo., I.

Since the emergency brake works on the front wheels, the caliper pistons need to be screwed back in to create enough room for the new pads. There is a special tool for this, but I made do with a pair of 90-degree bent-nose needle-nose pliers over the years.
