Thanks John and Chuck,

I found my Haynes and learned about the piston size difference after I'd put things back in place and mounted the wheel. I needed to roll the car away from the garage door.

From the pic it looks like I may be able to read the size through the wheel. If I don't find one salvage looks like I might be buying a rebuilt. I'd still like to get the piston out to see if mine is rebuildable.

Compressed air? That's what Haynes suggests.

Cheers,

Erwin
