Alldata states to push the caliper in (both front and rear). Generally, if it's a hollow piston you push them in. Hope it helps

which ones do you mean, front or back?
when i changed the front ones on a 2000 hyundai sonata required nothing but a 10in clamp and the old brake pad. dont know what the back had or if it was even disk or drums.

yep,
nothing special. Small pry bar to compress the piston then two bolts to take off.
easy, took about an hour for all four.

back is disk and much smaller pad with ***much*** more caliper line slack than the front.

I stopped using a c - clamp a long time ago
