Not sure if anyone has the answer for me here. But I just replaced my pads and turned rotors on my SVT Focus, and added steel braided lines.
I can not get the rear caliper over the rotor with the new pads in. I can't seem to get the rear brake piston to receed back into the caliper. I've tried the 'ole C-clamp thing. The psiton won't budge!!! I believe there is a different method the get the piston to push back, but I have no idea how.
I've tried turning the piston, nothing. There is no book for the SVT Focus, and I can't find any info online.
Hoping someone can help me here. Anybody have any experience with this set up? Thanks in advance.

the rear pistons screw in not push in because of the emergency brake

 

there's your answer...

 

PM'd you the solution.

 

You're right....apparently you do screw it in with a special socket that turns while applying pressure. I figured it had something to do with the emergency brake. Alan PM'd me and gave me the lowdown on how to do it, and where to get the tool.
Thanks everyone.

 

Thanks man!
