I tryed rebuilding the rear left caliper yesterday and it took me 6 hrs. from start to finish.I guess if I had a place with all the right tools it wouldn't have taken that long.It doesn't leak but I think after all the cleaning and sanding and time it took getting one of the pistons out it wasn't worth it.I don't know if I even want to trust it.For $39.00 for a rebuilt caliper from FCP im going to get both rear calipers.Sometimes you need to think about if it's worth saving a few bucks and also your safety.What do you think?
