Brake problem!!!

[Ctdprep]

i was changing the pads on my 205, rear brakes, i have DBA Bendix calipers and when I took out the bads i sat into the car to get a tool and i hit the handbrake ( dont ask! weirdist thing ever ) and the the caliper came out, but i cant push it back in!! so I cant get the new pads in! please help! do i need to bleed that brake or something?!?!?!

are you trying to push the piston or turn it back in ???

some time if the wont push back try turning it with a big pilers

i take it you released the hand brake

if you cant get the piston back in open the bleed nipple and push it back then

thanks for the fast reply

I'm trying to push it back, it is pressing against the disk.. so should i try turning it if the push wont work?

thanks

yeah try that i cant remember its a while since i had a 205 make sure the hand brake is totally released then if its still not moving open the bleed nipple and push it back might be handier to take the caliper off the axle.

use some wd40 or whatever you have to hand incase the caliper is a bit tight ;)
