Brake caliper seals

[Mark Cahill]

My rear passenger side caliper seems to be sticking. Thought it was my pads so changed them last weekend but its down to the bare minimum already.

Just wondering how hard is it to change the seals yourself or would I be better off getting someone to do it for me or perhaps just getting a second hand caliper. Anyone got any idea how much a set of seals would set you back?

probably best get a secondhand caliper mark..
seals wont fix a seized caliper if your saying the pads are gone again...

easy enough job to be done, I have done it on a few cars before... you just need to be sure the pistons are in good shape!!!
