Review on πŸ”§ ABN Ratcheting Caliper Piston Tool: 4-in-1 Universal Disc Brake Compression and Spreading Tool by Ryan Sandell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Universal design to work with one and two POTs in one tool

would fit perfectly on a 2014 Subaru Outback with the brake pad fully retracted. This car has two pistons in the front and one POT in the back. Worked great on both setups. It can also be difficult for this machine to achieve full retraction, but this tool had the power to do it. The ratchet function was good as I wasn't able to do a full 360 rotation. Another point, the retraction was slightly too square which means this tool didn't force the pistons to come back at an oblique angle what is not good ; This tool may not be suitable for everyday workshop use, but is suitable for occasional weekend use by a mechanic.

Pros
  • Works great for me
Cons
  • Hard to say
