Remove tire, remove two bolts holding brake caliper to rotor. Remove caliper with brake hose attached (set on top of rotor or hang with wire to relieve pressure off of brake hose).

after getting the brake pads off and have a caliper in your hand,take a c-clamp and position it so it will close on the center of the piston.then make sure the cap for the brake fluid resovoir has been removed allowing the fluid to travel back through the line,then simply,but slowly,twist the c-clamp so it closes,and the piston on the brake caliper will slowly push in.
