Hi,
So my rear calipers have been pretty bad lately, we had them off wound the piston back and forth until it became un seized, the slider pins are pitted badly, the brake sticks on but only half a pad, so now im looking at having them off again and fully refurbing them.
Question is would I need a new piston as well or is the seal kit enough to have them working again ?
All the kits ive seen are seal kits and don't include bleed nipples are the piston so i'd assume it just needs a clean and new seals to have them operating correctly but that is my assumption, I would like some advice by somebody that has done the refurb.
Thanks
