Is there anyone that has a front brake caliper they are willing to part with. I have to and both of them the pistons are seized up. The ones i have are a
1978 and a 1976 let me know if anyone can help. If a piston is seized how do you un seize it?

Soak it with PB blaster and then try pushing it in with the clamp and pushing it out with the master cylinder.

Go to your original post here http://www.hondachopper.yuku.com/topic/7865

if you don't find anyone who will part with one, i'll get in line behind Big Joe for one of those (if he doesn't want both).
or if you have a grease gun, i can send you a homemade adapter that i posted about in the link Big Joe included above and you can try to un-sieze it. n
