What tool is required to rewind the rear brake calipers?

[stumpage]

I'm about to change the rear discs and pads. What rewind tool do I need? Had a look on the old www and find there's lots of different types (and there was me thinking it would be easy!).

Cheers

I made my own tool using a length of steel with some notches in it. Only takes 10mins to make one. Good luck.

When i did mine i used the 2 prong spanner from an angle grinder.
Did the job a treat, no problem.

I bought one from Halfords, it was about £10, IIRC, but that was quite a few years ago. It's a bit cold to go and check now!, but if you want a ref. no. or the list of 'what it fits' etc from the packet, so that you get the right one, PM me.
