Default 2007 XKR rear brake pad change question...

hey all. i just did my front pads and to push the piston back in, all i needed was a c-clamp. will that work in the rears too, or do they require a piston retraction tool? hopefully not, but i wanted to be prepared before i started the job. tnx for any help in advance.

Yes you will need the piston retraction tool to perform the rear pad change

The xkr have larger brakes than the xk although the procedure is identical as both have electronic handbrake and require the rear piston retraction kit
