How do i get the cylinder back into place without a C-clamp after replacing brake pads?

Thanks!

you mean you got the bolt off > move the cylinder back > got out the old pads > put the new pads in > grease teh upper sliding caliper bolt > put the caliper down again > tighten the bolt > go insid and press the pedal several times and the cylinder will go back and the brake will be as hard as it was before ! ! :D
