Think fronts push in and rears wind in clockwise.:2Confused

Calliper pistons are just that, pistons. They do not wind either way they just slide in and out.

They should slide nice and easy with some equal leverage on each side of piston. Keep an eye on your master cylinder refill chamber as excess fluid from behind piston will be making its way back there.

Cricky much easier to do than explain.

I stand corrected, rear piston does wind in/out. Fronts just slide :Hammer

i bought a tool that winds the backs in for 12 quid.. any decent motor factors should be able to get you one.
