Re: rear brakes replacement issues
i was looking for some 1 to talk from experience seeing how there seems to be only 3 different shoe sizes, and like stated above i bought the smallest 1 for a 92 civic part number 546 from o'reillys 70.9x1.18 . thats a possibilty i could have installed them incorrectly.

Re: rear brakes replacement issues
Sure there is. Just remove the brake fluid reservoir cap, then squeeze the slave piston together. If you have a hard time doing it that way, you can also open the bleeder screw, but if you do that, you absolutely must completely and totally bleed the system afterwards.
