Unhappy I'm having wheel cylinder trouble and need a little help--->
I'm rebuilding the wheel cylinders on my 4 wheeler, and the pistons are frozen sollid inside the cylinders.

Does anyone have a trick to getting them out?

PB Blaster! Any kind of penetrating oil would be good though and WD-40 if you don't have anything else.

PB Blaster and a C-Clamp. By wheel cylinders are you talking about the brake calipers?
