I'm getting ready to replace the rear brake pads. Is the rear caliper reset by pushing in or is a special tool needed to screw it back in

push in.remove the brake fluid master cylinder cap before you push it back in.if any fluid leaks just add as needed.i use a c clamp for pushing it back in.i just put a piece of wood or anything strong on piston then c clamp it back in.good luck
