Stoptech Calipers: How do I get the pistons pushed back in?

I know about using C clamps (on other calipers) but they do not fit my Stoptech calipers.

Is there a specific C clamp (part # or model) or tool
I can use.

Thanks

Don't use a C-clamp...use an old pad. Check this thread for details:

Can this be done by hand with no tools?
Thanks.

Yes. Only thing you'll need is a jack and way to get the wheel off... Other than that, all you really need is a pair of pliers to pull the pins out.
