Local Parts Place?? - Bellevue

Well, I need to find some parts, and the sooner the better... I'm looking for any (reasonably priced) places that I can get some stainless steel brake lines (95GT), and the rear piston caliper compression tool (used for replacing the rear disk brake pads). any ideas?

u can get the rear disc tool from snap on for 200+

or just go to the ford dealer with your calipers they should twist them back in for free

A lot of parts stores carry a very simple unit for doing this...they are nowhere near as nice as a Snap On or Matco, but they do work, and are very cheap. Here's what they look like:

Should be able to find them at any Napa, Shmucks, etc...

if you dont have the tool, you can use pliers . not the best method but it works

Yea, they do suck, but eventually they work. Good thing to have if your only gonna use it once in a great while.

That tool sucks. I threw it across the garage and grabbed a pair of nice stubby craftsman needle nose pliers. Set the tips in the piston notches and twist with a screwdriver between the handles for leverage. Done in a minute and with a useful tool.

btw I tried that cheap ass tool, it sucks, lots of people just use a good set of needle nose pliers. as far as SS lines, I'll go to brads.
