thats eazy just remove the 2 bolts(front brakes) i belive its 12mm and remove the caliper only the part that hold the brake pad, then with a large c clamp push the piston all the way in!!! put the new pads back on... you dont have to bleed the brakes...i would put pics but wont let me.....

Thanks for the replies

Fronts are done. Pretty simple.

I'm waiting on a rear brake caliper tool set that I purchased before doing the rears.

What tool set? You don't need anything special unless you're planning on rebuilding the calipers or changing the drum pads for your parking brake. Otherwise, it's the same as the front. (well, different sizes)

I assumed the calipers had to be turned back.

I honestly didn't even take a look at them.

So, you are saying they only need to be pushed back in just like fronts (Feel kind of stupid)?
