  • brake help

    ok so I think my brake piston is frozen. I can't get it to move in order to put the brake pads in. What should I do ?

    use a C clamp and compress the piston back in.

        Did the brakes work when you took them apart?

          yeah i was just replacing the rotors and brake pads. I tried that C Clamp and the piston doesn't move at all. I bled the brakes too and still the piston doesn't move
