hi want to replace brakes in rear on my 2001 chevy silverado half ton 4 wheel drive. do i need a special tool for pushing the piston back in the caliper or can i just use a c clamp thanks

Use c-clamps. They'll work just fine. If they are not long enough. Put a flat piece of metal on the top of the piston and then c-clamp. Just dont pince the rubber seal when you get it close to pushed in.
