    Resetting parking brake caliper on a Ranger 2015 trailer

    Guys I need help. My brake pads were shot and I am replacing them. Pads actually broke away from the metal and have broken into pieces. Don't know how that happened besides faulty pads. The front was easy but the back have a parking brake and I cant get the piston in to replace the pads. I have read that I have to reset the parking brake but do not know how. Any help wou;d be appreciated.

    Takes a special tool (usually) that I borrowed from Auto Zone to "turn" the piston back in. Pretty easy once you have the tool.
