hi american people

I'm renovating brake rear calipers of my civic (88-91).

But I can not remove piston sleeve (look attach picture). Do you have the solution?

I need to remove the piston sleeve to fully clean the caliper and remove the cam (parking brake)

Have you understood my Frenglish? lol

I don't think it will come out. I am not just saying that because you are french.

 

ThatRicerDaniel yet in workshop apparently it's possible !

Thread an insert in the threaded hole for the brake line. Use compressed air to push it out. If it is very seized then use some penetrating oil around the piston and let it set overnight. Then use compressed air again.

 

1990edsedan thanks you so much !

I thought it was screwed (see diagram). I try it tomorrow and I will come to you.

 

I put WD40 in the caliper, I plugged the hole 2 of 3 and then injecting air under pressure .... but the piston does not move! : (

 

yep! compressed air in the bleed valve hole and it should pop out.

 

And keep your fingers away when it does come out...

 

Right! otherwise you will be yelling obscenities
