Take the cap off of your brake fluid reservoir. This will make it easier to compress the cylinder as you won't have to fight against the brake fluid pressure.
What are you using to compress it? I use a giant C-Clamp since I don't have any fancy brake tools.

If im not mistaken:
If Theres an X pattern on the piston...
You need a special tool that compresses it as it turns it back inward....
Maybe check with your local auto parts and rent the proper tool...
This is how you have to do my 1999...

In my Haynes manual it says, using a two-pin spanner or a pair of needle nose pliers, turn the piston to retract it into the caliper bore. Turn the piston as necessary so that a line drawn through the slots in the piston face would be exactly perpendicular to a line drawn through the caliper mounting bolt holes.
