A large set of channel locks can replace the c-clamp. Make sure you use the c-clamp/plyers on the old pads then put the new ones in.

fullgrown is an unknown quantity at this point
finally got it all done. didn't need a c-clamp after all. i just needed a steel pipe, and shove it in....took alot of force, but pushed it in. and did the bleeding also. RR, RL, FR, and FL. no more squeeks or anything. good as new. thanks to everyone who helped me out.

That's what i get for thinking worst case scenario. Glad you got it worked out, for a lot less than I thought you would. Good deal
