I never snapped mine off but in fear of doing so I started bleeding my
calipers by loosening the cross-over pipe. But that was before I sent them off
to Peter for rebuilding and he got them out somehow. The bleeders work just
fine now, thank you.
Not literally replacing but a remove and rebuild operation. Call Peter at
NOS Imports and see what he says. Wouldn't you like some stainless steel
pistons anyway?
NFI Just a satisfied customer.
