i know how to change brake pads in the front, and the back should be the same, but do u have to bleed the brakes for the back?

If you open up the lines then yes you should bleed the system. You need a special tool to push the piston back in on the rear brakes. Just a heads up if you did not already know.

Not really. On my del Sol rear disc brakes the piston was like a phillips screw. I just grabed a thick straightedge and turned it back in. You should lube the seals with some sort of oil, though.

Do you have rear disc brakes, though? Or drums? Discs are mostly the same as the front; not hard to figure out. Drums I have no idea.

for the rear disc calipers, all you would need is a needle nose pliers and turn it clockwise to get the piston back in.

back no. all u need is a needle nose plier, open it up a bit and turn the piston with it going clockwise.

boosted eg

or you can use a prybar too thats what i used but all methods work if u dont have the proper tool forgot what its called though its a cube though.
