You're talking about the rear, right? I had to turn it to the right spot and the stud slipped in tightly from behind.

Trying to remember how I did this... 95 Formula...

Let's see, I think I pulled them through the back of the rotor, then, take the nut and thread it on. Tighten the nut completely and it will pull the stud completely onto the rotor. Does that make sense? Let me know and I will try and clarify.

That one I can't help you with... Ask dad for a clamp because that piston is pretty hard to compress without one. Maybe vise-grips?
