As for all the other itemes, I'll put together a shooping list of all the bits & pieces and then get you guys to confirm that I'm on the right track.
I appreciate all the help!

I don't see the wisdom in this. I'd say if your mind is set on removing all of the GPs then replace them all at this time, though my first choice would be to leave well enough alone and not remove them if they are working. If they are not stuck after 3 years I don't think they will be stuck any time in the future and if they are stuck now why break one off just to make work for yourself when the GP in there might last as long as you own the car? I know others disagree with my thinking but my feeling now is it is not worth the risk of breaking one just to put your mind at ease to know they are not stuck in there.
The reamer is available from M-B or samstag tools.
