2002 Lincoln LS Rear brake caliper

Brakes problem
2002 Lincoln LS V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 100000 miles

How do I get the piston on the rear brakes to move back so I can install my new brake parts. I use a C clamp to turn down the pistons on the front calipers but it doesn't work on the rear.

Hi mikegee08,

Thank you for the donation.

You need to turn/twist the piston in clockwise with a caliper piston adjuster.
