Nope, just retract the piston enough to fit, then bleed, then pump the brakes, if it's still squishy, bleed again...

Yup, just make sure there is no air in the line when you stop bleeding the brakes. The adjuster for the parking brake is is that cable on the top of the caliper (it goes over that hook on the top).
