i was wondering how to put the rear pads on the disk. it has the parking brake attached to the caliper so i cant move the piston to make the pads fit. anyone know how to adjust the piston inwards?

If it is the piston with the x lines through it, you need a tool or a big pry bar or something to turn the piston clockwise and push it in as you do it, then it should go in.

Keep It Clean
Remember that the rear pistonts don't slide they twist. Just get a flat head screw driver and twist them the will go in. Put in new pads and you're set. When everything is said and done.

Press your brakes in 3 times firm to seat the rear postons to the new pads.
