Looks like the caliper rebuild I tried to do is not going to work. Even though I have flushed the brake system twice in two years when I pulled my sticking rt. front off yesterday and opened it up all kinds of nasty looking crap was inside. It cleaned up pretty good but was not a mirror finish like some here say it should be. No pits or rough spots but just not what I think it should look like. There were some dings and marks on the pistons, not sure what caused it but they were there. Put it all back together and drove the car. Brakes on that side were smoking when I came back, slight drag on the wheel when jacked up so my guess is the caliper is toast.
Fastlane has calipers listed for a little over $100.00. I can get rebuilds local for $60.00. Is there any reason to not use a rebuild, IE are they junk? I figure the ones on the car are what it came with since I don't see any replacements in the history. If new lasts 250k+ I think it may be worth it, but if rebuilds will work as well I don't mind saving the $40.00 or so.
