If you take the caliper off, or the wheel, remember, do not squeeze the brake lever while the disc is not between the pads. Doing this could push the piston out of the caliper.

Thank You for this, sid! I'm bound to make a mistake (or 5) but you saved me on this one! I appreciate it.

Yeah, fishy, indeed. Kind of puts a dent in my weekend plan, but better safe than sorry. Over the weekend I'll try to catch my friend's son and see if he can loosen them bolts for me so I can get it straight.

..i told her 4 or 5 times to be careful of the pipe when she was dis-mounting...
