Instsalling new rear brakes pads and cannot push the piston back into caliper. I am using a large C clamp to apply pressure to piston but it won't budge.
Any ideas?
Thanks...

NAPA has kits, even Pep Boys has servicable items. Key is to find a brake "socket" that will mate with the indents in the rear piston. You can even fabricate something fairly easily.
