If I had to do it again right now I would rebuild it. Now I know how to do
it :-). The rebuilt caliper kit from Volvo was about 180$ / each and the dust boot kit was only about 42$ here in Sweden.
You have to put some disc brake grease on the boot and piston to make it slide in easily. I use Lucas red grease.
But the next time for the same calipers, probably in about 5 years I think it's time for a new caliper.
