Well now my "New2Me" Mark VIII needs rear brakes, my question is; do you need a special tool to turn the piston in or can you just use a C clamp and squeeze it in???

And are there any threads you know of that might have some details on how to change out the rear brakes??? THANKS...
 
They screw in. You can likely rent the tool from any of the parts houses. Do not buy the little universal cube tool they sell , it's a waste of time and money. Rent the pro tool or buy it cheap at harbor freight (usually 20 bucks on sale).

Thanks for the tip, took it to my father-in-law's shop yesterday... All four pads replaced, greased the front end, balanced/rotated the tires, had to tighten the left rear wheel bearing and replaced the fuel filter, ...
