5 out of 5 stars Very High Quality   June 22, 2008
I purchased this kit to work on my 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII. It mentions in the description that this kit is for rear brake pistons that need to be turned to be pushed back, but it will work just fine with other types as well. An adapter is included to allow for this without damaging the pins.

The quality of this kit is top notch. Everything from the tool to the case is high quality. The latches and hinges on the case are sturdy and feel unlikely to break. The adapters fit well, and the magnet built into the end of the tool is powerful enough to hold things together, but not so powerful that you need to pry the pieces apart. The inclusion of instructions on the inside of the case lid is a nice touch.

I found this tool to be vastly superior to the AP kit I had before and the Harbor Freight kit that I have/had. I snapped the HF in half and bent the AP tool trying to push back one of the pistons in my car, while the K-D had no issues with the same piston. The price difference may be substantial, but the first time you can't get the cheaper tool to work and you need to walk to the parts store, it's money well spent.
