REAR BRAKES

[tkwhitestang]

Hey this is a odd question. im putting on rear pads and rotors, i got the rotors on but the caliper will not completely go over. i know you have to compress the piston back but when i do that it will not move at all. i barley got the piston to go back in but still would not allow the caliper to fit. is there a trick to make this work or is the caliper bad. or could i have someone grind the pads down.

there is a caliper compression tool you'll need to use to compress the rear calipers...they twist in.

Youcan also use a set of needle nosed pliers to turn them CLOCKWISE to tighten them in.

Like they said make sure you are screwing them back in and not outright pushing them back in.
