rear caliper piston problem?

well ive been refurbing my sierra calipers.

but have a problem with re-installing the one rear piston.

basically if i turn it in with no downforce (even if its most of the way down the caliper), then it just spinns.

it will only go down into the caliper if i put lots of force onto it.

any ideas if this will cause me any problems?

as i don't really know how the rear calipers work.

cheers

Thats correct you have to apply force when turning the piston back in

also is there likely to be a problem with the one that went in very easy, with no force required?
