Caliper Question
I am getting my Calipers power coated tomorrow so, I have them all out and stripped, clean and ready to go. My question is can I reuse the rubber and seal that I removed?
I am planning on purchasing re-build kit for each with comes with rubber on the piston and the rubber seal is this necessary? If you have done this please advice.
Thanks

When I had my calipers powder coated recently, I bought the caliper rebuild kits from my local dealer. IMO - it's the right way to do it. Then make sure you drain and clean out the brakes lines and resevoir and refill with either DOT3 or DOT4 brake fluid.

I am all for doing it the right way.
