Is there a Bentley writeup for replacing seals/dust boot in rear caliper? I thought there would be
#5
My main question is how I get the piston out, and then back in.
I assume the twist and pull method should get it out. And twist and push to get it back in?
Or should I pump my brake pedal until it pushes it most of the way out and then twist and pull.
I am just looking for the correct method of getting the piston out/in.
Thoughts?

I got it figured out tonight.
I was able to use the tool that compresses the rear caliper to lock onto the rear piston but instead of turning it clockwise, I turned it counter clockwise until the piston just came out. Then I was able to pull the boot out of the two grooves that hold it in. Overall, a real simple job.
Tomorrow my boot and seals will come in and I will put it all back together.
I will probably do a short write up for the archives since there really is no good info in there.
Thanks for looking that up for me, Yippers.
