HeLP Rear BrakeJOb 2000 *********

I am having difficulty twisting in the rear piston sufficiently to go over the new pads. It seems like it is stuck. i Torqued it really hard and could not turn it. Do I need a special tool or what?? I even opened the bleeder valve and still could not turn the piston. This is weird . Any advice on 2k rear brake job.THX I

Yeah there is a special tool that looks like a cude that fits onto the holes, or you can try and rig it with pliers to compress the caliper.
