I must agree with Big John, pull the head off and the pan and I will add the following. 1. Remove all the rod caps if possible. This gives the engine alittle movement because generally the crankshaft will be able to rotate away from the stuck piston. 2. Usually 2and 3 are stuck or 1 and 4 depending on where the engine shut off. 3. Try to gently bump crank with the fan or the jacking up of the rear wheel idea works to if done gently. 4. Keep an eye on your bearings in your rods so they don't fall out. 5. If your lucky the sleeves should come up with the pistons and then you can press them out with a press, again gently. 6. If this doesn't work your better off with the bottle jack method with a chain over the top of the jack and then hooked to the engine channels.. Keep us posted.
