Today we changed the brake pads on an old Toyota Tacoma. Once we finally pried off the rusty old pads, we had to adjust the four pistons which hold the brake pads in place. They also allow the car to tighten the brake pads around the rotor. We realized we needed a c clamp to do this. Mrs. Kelly first got one that was not big enough to get around the brake caliper. Then Mr. Shepperd got one from the facilities that was the correct size. This allowed us to put on the new brake pads and put everything back together.
