    the rears dont compress, you need a special tool to "twist" them in. autozone, murrays, napa, etc all sell this tool for $10 or less.

    if is a single piston caliper( i think of it quite is).... your community automobile areas shop sells a "brake caliper piston compressor" or you may ask your grandpa for a 4-6" "C" clamp utilized in wood working. place the table certain factor of the clamp on the non-piston factor of the caliper. The screw factor is going into the caliper & SLOWLY --screw it in ( righty-tighty----lefty-lucy ) turn it precise, depress the piston sufficient to place in the pads & finished the installation.........be certain you lube the slides!!!!!
