I don't believe I was rude at all having re-read the posts. Your comments were to only thing that qualifies as such. In any case, I'm not here for a pissing match with you, just info to the questions I asked. Thanks to those who tried helping. The replacement caliper is now on and bled.

Some people could interpret this as being snippy. Just trying to help you a little.

Yeah, don't ask a question if you don't want the full answer. Realize that you didn't know WTF you were asking about, fully.

If anyone wants to know, you CAN use a 4 inch c clamp to compress the rear caliper piston.

That is all.
