how do i get the piston to go back in the caliper once i take it off????? someone help me please

 

c clamp

 

thanks but can u go a little more in depth....the rear calipers are hard.... i put the car in neutral and i even took the ebrake off but the pistons are still not goin in... the c clamp method doesnt seem to be working

 

Grab an old brake pad or something just as hard, place it on top of the piston and use the c clamp. BTW, IIRC you should open the top of the brake MC.

 

Don't forge to rotate the piston... in the back if you look at the piston, there's a cross shape to it... you can rotate the piston (clockwise) AND push the piston back in with a large pair of needle-nosed pliers (as long as the tips fit into the "cross" groove). ANd as Jynx mentioned, don't forget to take the cap off the MC

 

thanks guys but the rear pistons are still a ***** any ideas?

 

They still don't go in?

Bleed the system and do it? Dunno.

 

thanks guys i tried to rotate the backs and it worked thanks for all ur help my 240 is now stoppin like a maniac.

 

Glad to hear that
