Hi guys,
I have managed to get a set of Porsche Boxster front calipers for an absolute bargain £180 but they could do with new seals and powder coating.
I've done a little search on the net for guides but I just seem to find links to seal kits as opposed to helpful guides on how to remove pistons, replace seals, and clean up the caliper.
I have read that it's best to get the caliper powder coated before doing the rebuild so I'll get this done first.
Has anyone got any experience with rebuilding calipers, any tips, or guides?
I did find this one guide from the lotus owners club but I was more interested in a Porsche specific one if possible:
