Upon inspection late last year I noticed the piston seals on my right front brake caliper were pretty much toasted. I originally planned to just purchase new claipers for the front but elected to replace the seals myself since the Fed Govt don't know how to manage money and needs to suck more out of the working people's pocket.

Looks to be a pretty simple job, but if anyone has any advise, .

Have plenty of fresh fluid there for bleeding...

The ABS will cause it to trap air if you allow the calipers to drain. There is a process for this, but I do not have it. You may want to shop around and find some "self bleed" screws. These are check valves so 1 man can bleed easily. Just open the screw and pump the pedal. Tighten the screw when done. It has a check valve inside.
The seals are easy. Messy but easy.

Its not a hard job, just be sure to elevate or pinch off the brake line after removing the caliper so you don't get too much fluid loss. Just as a counterpoint, I race my 94 Corvette and routinely damage my piston seals from high temps; I never replace these with no ill effects. lf you let the job slide, I don't think its going to make much difference.
