The first thing you want to do is check to see if the the parking brake is working . These calipers tend to bind up and become more of a nusence than anything. IF it were mine I'd put on calipers. In the northeast these calipers just can't handle the weather.
Anyways, there are 2 pins that extend into the spindle. I remove the one that the arrow points to. Then pivot the caliper off the remaining post.
Also these pistons can't just be pressed in or it will break. They need to turn while being pressed. There is a special tool available. Follow the dots on this pic and you can see some v-grooves in the piston.
