I can not get the piston on the rear caliper to go back, it seems like the emergency brake is holding it out but the cabel is fully extended

To retract the piston you need a piston remover/installer tool number T87P-2588-A

siimply rotate piston clockwise until piston is fully retracted into the bore.

Make sure the slot in the piston is position so it will engage wiht the pin on the brake pad.
