So im putting rear brakes on, and I am trying to push the piston further back into the caliper so they will go back on. I did the drivers side rear with no problem (I know they have to be screwed back in). The passenger side turns, but it doesnt screw back, it just kinda turns in place. I was just wondering if anyones had this same problem, or If anyone knows a way to get the piston back in the caliper...thanks...

 

sometime if the caliper wont go back in it means it done for and you have to either rebuid it or buy a new one. if you havnt tried yet, push against the piston as hard as you can while turning it and see if will go in. if not its probably messed up. hope it works out for you.

 

Try cracking the bleed screw on the passenger caliper.

 

If you do crack the Bleeder and it does go back,,make sure you replace the brake hose...its probably collasped...Also,,did you try turning the opposite way and pushing it back?

 

Ok, guys, I just went to Auto Zone and rented the tool. It went right back in. Probably should have done this from the beginning, but the other side went right in with just a pair of needle nose pliers. Anyways, thanks for the input fellas...
