...... in short terms, yes. But make sure you have 3 arms. two hands on each arm and a mental-telthapy active twin to help you out.
(Unless its the brake pistons you are refering to), i suggest ANY bottom end engine work should be performed with the engine out.---- chris.

No, not at all...
The head will have to come off,the piston will not go right down the bore because the main bearing web and crankshaft will get in the way.
At least with a 203 engine it's not difficult to prevent the sleeves moving when you do this job. And yes, it may be best to take the engine out, but not totally necessary.
