Brake Fluid Replace Tools 900 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be Greg on  Sun Feb 20 10:20 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I have a 1994 940 with Girling Single Piston Caliper Front Brakes and ATE rear brakes (Live Axle).
I thought it would be a fairly easy job to replace the brake fluid, but now I'm not so sure.
Other than the factory (expensive) Volvo tools, what tools can be used to retract and hold the caliper pistons back?
From what I've seen, it looks like a big C Clamp might work for the front calipers, but the rear looks like I might have to default to a special tool of some sort.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Greg
