Should I rebuild my rear calipers or buy some rebuilt ones from someone else?
I’ve heard that the rears can’t be rebuilt very well.
Were is a good source that wouldn’t break the bank for rebuilt ones if that is the case.

had to split the calipers to get the pistons out |

I must admit, I saw that the hand brake assembly or mechanism worked OK so I did not drill and pull out that "freeze plug". |

Couldn't you just clamp down on one and use high air pressure to get the other one out? This works perfectly on the other calipers I have done it on, but I havent rebuilt the rears yet. |

get Eric to do them... best money I've spent on my car! these cars are short on safety: brakes are about it... Eric does a great job and they look amazing too! I wish I had back all the time I spent working with old, shitty calipers instead of buying Eric's Calipers FIRST!! |

it's better to have some things done right the first time. |

that a jab at the shitty-beyond shitty paint job on my cores? that's it, you're blocked |

Yeah... my feable mind. I did Bill's rears in silver then sent him a set of golds for the front... Dooh! And thanks for reminding me... your cores had the "finest" finish I've seen in a long time |
