I got the rear callipers off. I can compress the piston clossest to me when installed. By adjusting the nut and set screw. How do I compress the other piston? Thanks guys!

No, one adjuster for each pad. If, after removing the cover on the back side of the caliper, you are faced with an empty hole, then you are missing the adjuster. These are often lost. Check the other rear caliper to see if it has one. They are easily removable, hence the reason they get lost, and one can be used to service both calipers. They are not needed except for servicing, so can be stored in a tool box or other safe place (like a bank vault).
