i think the piston may have come out of the suspension cylinder last night before i removed the rear arm - how do i get it back in? Maybe it hasn't but its moving around alot within the gaitor and i can't push it back in.
i followed Mat Fenwick's writeup, system pressure is all gone, i wonder if i have residual pressure in there, don't know how. I have left the brake LHM feed pipes connected to the calliper.

Panic over, eased back in nicely with a bit of leverage
