85 200X caliper piston doesn't go in

I followed the 1985 200X shop manual instructions on
how to change the rear brake pads but the
caliper piston won't go in, any ideas? :rolleyes:

Did you try adjusting the parking brake screw? If not loosen up the nut and back the bolt off some to allow some clearence.

Take the pressure out of the line (remove the brake fluid)

Leave the Banjo bolts off, then push the piston back
