Robert,
You probably won't be able to get the clamp in to depress the pistons. They are dual piston calipers. After you remove the old pad use a bar or large screw driver to push the piston back in. Loosen the bleeder screw first and push out the old fluid. It is a good time to bleed the system too.
I just finished rebuilding my rear brakes, calipers (rebuilt), rotors, and pads. Having rear brakes again sure makes a big difference. The old calipers were frozen up and the rotors were shot.
Good luck.
