Hi everyone,

Well, here is the outcome of my "frozen piston in the caliper 
scenario"........By using compressed air via a small air tank w/ 125 psi 
compression, I was able to dislodge the pistons from their seats.  The 
problem is that they are terribly pitted.  Rather than take a chance on 
them or try a rework myself(which would cost half of the cost of 
re-manuf. calipers) I've decided to  buy some refurbished units from 
Apple Hydaulics.

Thanks to all that provided their help in this matter.  

Cheers,

Alan Camhi
