It's easier to work on if you remove the calipers completely from the
hose especially if any of the pistons are frozen in place like mine
were. I had to use a hammer and vise grips (padded jaws) to get two of
mine out. You will have to drain the brake fluid to relieve the
pressure to be able to pull out the pistons. I would do all 4 pistons
while you are at it.
