Craig,

The C-Clamp should work fine. Make sure it is big enough to get around the
whole caliper. Take care not to pinch any soft parts like a hose or other
fittings on the back side. It should sit on solid iron in the back of your caliper.
I rarely use anyhting on the fornt side of the piston. I stick the rod part
that of the C-clamp inside the piston cup. Keeps it from slipping around as you
tighten the clamp. Assuming you have no corrosion issue on the pistons, the
entire operation should not take more than 20-25 minutes each side depending on
your mechanical skills. That's with hand tools and includes time to remove and
reinstall tires.

I have a friend and an GF who are both heavy on the brakes. That resulted in
giving me plenty of practice replacing pads. I can usually do the entire job
in about 20-25 minutes.

BTW, I didn't mention that turning the wheel the direction you are working
will make access to the bolts to remove the caliper easier. Oh I failed to
mention that the caliper has to come off to to do this properly.
