I just wanted to change my rear pads, that was like 5 hours ago and now im in my kitchen with the caliper on my table. First problem was that stupid inside brake adjuster cover. Now that I have that off I can't get the inside piston to go all the way back inside the caliper so I can put the new pad in. Whats stopping it from goiing in. I followed the directions from the pelican parts section by the way.

In general this is a question that probably only a select few can answer. I was hoping Eric might chime in, but he must be unavailable. I don't like to post an answer unless I am sure of the advice I give. I had to find a junk piston with the particular mechanism and take it apart to test the procedure.
