Question Rebuilding rear brake questions...

I have removed the piston on the caliper. Gotten those seals out.

However, my troubles are with the parking brake portion of the caliper. The Haynes manual has no directions. It says it is to hard.

The FSM describes the process. However, it looks like a SST IS needed. Anybody taken this apart?

Second. If I leave the parking brake portion in the caliper. What would be the best way to flush the caliper?

I was thinking spraying brake cleaner inside. Then flushing with fresh brake fluid. Should that do the job?
