caliper rebuild?

[joshua43214]

If you can remove the rust with a brass brush, you can rebuild them. if there is any pitting behind where the seal is, it needs to be replaced.

make sure the bleeder opens before you start, it would suck to rebuild the caliper only to break off the bleeder trying to bleed it.

is it missing the anti rattle spring?

Not to highjack this thread, but since we are on the subject, does anyone know a good way to reduce caliper rattle when going over small bumps?

My psg. side rear wheel has the same rattle that my old 325 had, and it's getting on my nerves.

I am no mechanic, just curious if I can do this in the driveway or if it is something I need a shop to look at.
