One of the most critical elements of automotive maintenance is regularly changing your brake pads. Not only is this important for overall safety but it also ensures your vehicle is performing at its optimum level. Normally this task can be done in your own garage. It is a relatively straightforward task and can save you a tremendous amount of money. To help make the job as simple as possible, pick up this Craftsman’s Heavy Duty Brake Pad Spreader.

Made to handle both single and dual piston applications, this tool allows you to easily compress both pistons at once. This alone can save you up to 30 minutes per job. To make this transition as smooth as possible, a sliding bolt makes for a quick change between single and dual pistons.

The Brake Pad Spreader works especially well with late model Ford or GM front wheel drive cars along with E or F-Series Fords. As with all Craftsman products, this tool comes with a lifetime warranty.
