Anyone went through a caliper overhaulin'? Not necessarely on a celica as they are pretty much the same for all car...
I read its possible to do one without a kit is the rubbers are not damaged..basicly just brushing/lubbing the sliders and the cylinder (if seized).. any input??? --------------------  -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |

odds are you wont need a new piston, just put a piece of wood between the piston and the rest of the caliper when you pop it out with air.
as for the cylinder, thats machined into the body of the caliper and if theres some light rust you can remove it with a scouring pad followed by washing it well. -------------------- |
