Yeah the rear brakes on them are screw in i dont have the tool either what i used was a screw driver put a rag over the end so u dont scratch the piston. Get a shifter and put it on the screwdriver handle and whind it in that way make sure you do it very carefully.

Give that caliper a scrub with brake fluid and a scrubing brush and go over the piston with it and try to free it up that way. Make sure your screwing it in the right way
