Z51 rear caliper
At a track day last weekend, I smoked the dust seals on a rear caliper and got close on the fronts. Anyone know the Brembo part number for the seal kits for the Z51 Calipers?
Thanks, in advance

Usually GM caliper rebuild kits include the piston and dust seals. If you are going to do more track days don't bother replacing them since they will just turn into crispy critters again. When doing brake maintenance just ensure you spray some good BrakeClean on the pistons before depressing them into the caliper. That will protect the piston seal from dirt. Racing calipers don't have dust boots because they burn away so easily.
