Brakes

I was just wondering if I need to use C-Clamps to get the calipers off so I can change my pads. Does anyone know for sure. I looked at the DIY and it didn't mention anything about it. thanks for your help.

If the pistons is to far forward you may need them two push it back to refit the calipr over the rotor anyway. would be a good idea to have some on hand JUST IN CASE.

I have a question about my brakes, they squeek when I let off of them. Like when Im at a red light, let off brake (squeek), clutch gas. Do you think that would be new pads needed, or maybe bleed the lines. It is a quick little squeek, but enough to bother me.
