How do you compress a rear brake caliper?
Chevy came up with the brilliant idea of turn in calipers a number of years back. Check the inside of the caliper piston cup. If you see a square depression in the center, it is a turn or twist in caliper. DO NOT try to compress it. You'll damage the caliper and increase your brake job costs. Chances are when a brake caliper wont compress it is the type that must be turned and compressed at the same time and requires a special tool that you can borrow from a local chain auto parts like Auto Zone. That was the case on my 96 Buick Riveria rear disk brakes.
