    Twin-Pot Rebuild

    Hey folks.

    So, I've got the brackets from salty-monk, a dual disc fork, another disc from a single-disc GS, and the Kawasaki twin-pot calipers to do the conversion.

    I want to rebuild the calipers before I mount everything up and I've got two seal kits on the way.

    Every rebuild tutorial I've located says to just squeeze the brake lever with the brake pads removed to get the pistons out. This is great, if they're already hooked up.

    Any tips on how to remove the pistons when the calipers are not hooked up to the master cylinder?

    An air hose into the brake line hole, they'll pop right out.

      Or hook it up to the rear if the fitting fits.
