One more question. Will a caliper spreader fit in the top of the caliper? I have one that I used on my Corvette when I changed the pads. I also like the idea of changing one pad at a time. That should make the job easier.

not sure if it will fit or not, depends on the design I guess. I just use two large flat blade screwdrivers, and I do it before I take the worn pads out since it doesn't matter if they get a little chipped up.
