Trouble changing brakes.

[1998Accord]

ok so I have the calipers off and already put in the new brakes but the caliper wont go back in because the new brakes are thicker and the thing between the caliper wont move and my C clamp wont move it in. is there so other way it moves

Get a piece of Wood and a Rubber hammer and hit it in! thats how i did it

rear or front calipers? for the rear, u need to twist the piston as u push it in

The rear twists... use a screw-driver or pry bar. The front should just push in. If it doesn't you got problems.

Remember to take the top off of your brake master.

if the front dont move you got a bad caliper that needs to be replace. if you do replace it make sure you bleed the brakes real good so get a buddy to help you out
