Compressed air did the trick...took about 100 lbs. to get that sucker out. Caliper and piston all cleaned and ready to re-assemble. Rubber seals look good...a little silicone to preserve helped. However, the two bolts that hold the caliper together are different. One has a rubber washer in the center, the other does not. Truthfully, I did not notice the difference when I took them out. I will check the other caliper (which is still on the bike) to determine which goes where.
I can only imagine what a mechanic would have charged to do all this!
