How to fix your calipers Instead of replacing them, you can get them rebuilt. I had Brake & Clutch Exchange, Inc. of Springfield do mine. I don't remember the exact amount, but I think it was a total of less than a hundred and got new pads to boot. Here's the kicker, I called them on a Saturday morning and the had them done by noon that same day. They looked brand new when I picked them up. I don't know of any places up by you in particular, but if you want they're number it's (217)-525-1990. They sell new hardware, turn rotors, and just about anything dealing with brakes and clutches. However: If the internal metal is
un-pitted because there was never any really old brake fluid in the system (we
all know that brake fluid absorbs 4% water per year in the midwest) then a
rebuild is a great solution. However if there is any metal pitting in the
inside of the bore then it's time to scrap the whole shebang and start with new
parts. |
