How about some detail on caliper rebuild part. I tried this once and could
only get one piston out. You have to block up bore on removed piston side and
have a blast of air from a compressor which I didn't have at the time to pop
the other piston out. I gave up and just bought a new one.

Sure:
1. Loosen lug bolts a little.
2. Jack car up and put on jack stands.
3. Remove wheels.
4. Remove calipers.
5. Rebuild calipers.
6. Put calipers back on.
7. Bleed brakes.
8. Put wheels back on.
9. Lower car partially and complete tightening of lug bolts.
10. Lower car completely.
