When you compress them you need to spin them, like the bottle caps on pill bottle lol. I have always been lucky and been able to do it with pliers.

or there is a cheap little cube tool with different tabs that fits on the end of a rachet, or you can use pliers as stated above, there will be grooves in an X pattern on the piston on the rears
