Aren't W124 rear calipers fixed two piston calipers just like the W114, W115, R107, and W123's?

Pop the pins, remove the spring holder, push back the pistons, then remove the old. Assembly, as they say, is the reverse.

No need to pull the caliper off the car, unless you are replacing the rotor. Caliper is held on by two bolts, 17 or 19mm. rotor is held on by allen head bolt.

If you are in a wet/salty enviormant, be prepared to whack that rotor to break it off the hub....
