Technical Rear caliper piston

[ramborobert]

I bought a tool of ebay so i could change the rear pads http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380416660977?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

But now i realise it is a right handed thread tool only. So only useful for the drivers side. But the bit at the top has a sqaure notch i could put my socket set on. So if i press hard on the socket set whilst twisting at the same time it should do the job? Or should i send it back and get a kit?

probably should have gone fore something like this

you could see if the seller does a Left hand Thread version of yours and spend another £15

Best to get a tool kit with both left and right threaded implements, otherwise one of the pistons could give you problems to wind back. it would still save you loads of dosh on the dealer price for a rear pad change.
