I am currently trying to change the brakes on my 99 Ford Taurus. I am changing the rear brakes only. I have already taken off the old disc and pads. I then put the new disc on. This is where my problem starts. I can't get the piston to go back so it will fit over the new pads. I have already tried using a C-clamp to make the piston go back but that isn't working. Does anyone have an idea that might help me?

 

The caliper pistons screw in---back to the parts store for the proper caliper tool. Autozone will rent it to you at no charge.
