| Customer Reviews: Very High Quality June 22, 2008 Sean D. Eaton (Hagerstown, MD) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this kit to work on my 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII. It mentions in the description that this kit is for rear brake pistons that need to be turned to be pushed back, but it will work just fine with other types as well. An adapter is included to allow for this without damaging the pins.
The quality of this kit is top notch. Everything from the tool to the case is high quality. The latches and hinges on the case are sturdy and feel unlikely to break. The adapters fit well, and the magnet built into the end of the tool is powerful enough to hold things together, but not so powerful that you need to pry the pieces apart. The inclusion of instructions on the inside of the case lid is a nice touch.
I found this tool to be vastly superior to the AP kit I had before and the Harbor Freight kit that I have/had. I snapped the HF in half and bent the AP tool trying to push back one of the pistons in my car, while the K-D had no issues with the same piston. The price difference may be substantial, but the first time you can't get the cheaper tool to work and you need to walk to the parts store, it's money well spent.
Excellent Pro Quality Set May 18, 2009 John Dowdell Bought this set primarily for use on VW cars. I had considered buying a caliper rewind tool from Metalnerd tools, who makes quality VW specific tools, but for not much more I bought this set, which gives me the ability to reset virtually any make of caliper.
Tool quality is excellent. All adapters are well machined. The screw press operates smoothly. The plastic case has durable hinges and latches.
Very good value for the money.
