Who properly rebuilds brake calipers?

Post by TurboLS » Sun Mar 20, 2022 7:26 pm

So we all know autozone and advance auto parts' vendors don't really do a great job rebuilding ITR calipers... has anyone found a vendor that does this properly (without switching to non-OEM equipment)?

I attempted to rebuild all 4 of my calipers last year with the OEM rebuild kits. After having the car sit all winter I found a rear was slightly leaking from the piston seal this past weekend (at least I'm 3 for 4, haha!). I just ordered some rear replacements from Rockauto to get me by and I'm going to give rebuilding my rears another go.
