Hi Rick,

Try using compressed air...doesn't have to be a
lot...maybe one of those portable electric
inflators...something that you might be able to put a
cone shaped adapter on it.  Shoot the air into the
brake line, but here's the thing...they're liable to
come out with some enthusiasm, so it's a good idea to
put a block of wood between the pistons.  something
that will stop them from extending all the way out. 
Hopefully that'll work for ya'!

Cheers,

Todd Bermudez
