When compressing a rear brake caliper, it's generally important to do so just enough to fit the new brake pads in place, typically around 1/4 to 1/2 inch. However, the exact amount can vary depending on the vehicle and brake system design. Always refer to the manufacturer's specifications or service manual for precise guidance. Additionally, using a caliper tool can help ensure proper compression without damaging the caliper.
