if it is the caliper at the rear u need the special tool to turn the piston clockwise to push in and counterclockwise to pull out
You will need to push the caliper piston back as well as rotated when you are replacing your rear brake pads. The caliper will need to be turned clockwise.
They need to be wound back in, using a special tool, a G-clamp also work to push it back, with the rotating part on the caliper piston.
the caliper needs a special tool. the piston does not push straight in. the spring needs to be released at the rear of the caliper. then using the special tool the piston twists back in to place

Use a C clamp to push the piston out of the way to remove and also to place back on rotor.
Up to about 1999, no. Only needed a large C clamp to push the piston back in the cylinger. After 2000 some rear brakes have the the screw type piston which requires you to un-screw the caliper back to the un-used pad position.
be sure to purcahse the tool to "screw" the caliper piston in. If you try to push the piston in on rear disc brakes you will damange the caliper.
You can find an inexpensive tool at your local auto parts. This works best.
front pushes in with a bar, rear screws in...
Yes, you need to remove the caliper first, then use the old brake pad and a C clamp to push down the piston of the caliper.
