Morning, quick question...I'm in the middle of redoing the calipers for the Notch. Passenger side-no problem. Driver side-BIG problem. The inboard piston is stuck and no air pressure, prying, pleading, etc. will get it out. I've soaked it overnight with penetrating oil, no go. It's in the oven right now roasting, hopefully the temp wil loosen things up enough. AAR, does anyone have a tried and true method for un-sticking such things when they absolutely, positively won't come out? AAnd for that matter, Jim A., do you have any of the forementioned pistons available? I'm thinking I might have to resort to drilling the little pendejo out (pardon my spanish).
