Saab Repair: Saab919000T rear brake, guide pins, handbrake cable


Question
I want to replace the pads and disk in the rear how do I push the slave cilinder in so the new pads feet in.

Answer
there is an adjusting screw, which is covered by a plug which needs to be removed. The piston has to be adjusted. Also, the handbrake cable will need to be removed. The guide pins also need to come out, 7mm hex. The brake assembly basically needs to be dissasembled, but do not take the hydraulics apart. Also, make sure that nobody presses on the  brake pedal with the caliper off the disc!
