Moving along but need some validation.

The front caliper pistons slid back in no problem...for the back just want to make sure.

Haynes says I have to turn a hex not on the outside of the caliper and a nut on the inside and that will move the piston back in (2 adjustments)...no sliding back in on its own.

Correct? ....then I adjust for "venting" once in?

thx, Gary

Be sure to apply pressure on the pistons as you use the screw to retract them. You DO NOT want the screws to come adrift. I've seen it many times.

Great advice guys...will give it a go later.

Outside caliper = clockwise

Inside caliper = counter-clockwise

Push the piston as you turn so you don't inscrew it.
