Hi, i'm fairly new to the brick board and i've been really impressed with everyone's knowledge and willingness to help answer questions. I recently picked up a 1990 240 wagon with 242k miles. I've been replacing a lot of parts trying to make sure it will be a reliable and safe ride. While I was putting everything back together I pryed the caliper pistons back to replace the pads and soon noticed a fluid leak at the dust seals. I figure I pushed it too far back and damaged the seals. What success have people had replacing the seals? Or do you think i'd be better off ordering new or rebuilt calipers? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Wayne
