2001 ACR...Anybody know of a spreader tool for the front calipers to move the pistons back for a fast pad change instead of the old screwdriver method. Apparently they are like pliers but open outward and exist for Brembo big reds so maybe for our calipers???

Avoid metal to metal contact on pistons...use "trim stick" (per Dodge service manual) of wood or plastic and they will go in without damage to piston or seals. I like a small plastic handled strap wrench that I happened to have...think it was one of a pair from Sears, and the smaller of the two works well.
