Default Caliper Rebuild

Does anyone know where I can get a Caliper rebuild for a fair price?

Try local autozone??

The only parts you're going to get are the caliper slide sleeves and the piston seal/boot. What else do you need?

My rebuilt calipers cost me about 65$ and the rebuild kit seals and stuffs from NAPA delco brand was something 18 bucks . . . i'd rather have new everywhere since alluminium wears faster than iron and you get that deposit to stuck your piston.

Another option is Fenco remanufactured calipers from Autozone. They are stock refurbished calipers, 40 bucks a piece + a refundable 40 dollar core charge when you give them your old caliper. If you want to be lazy, this is a cheap alternative. My bleeder screws were stuck in both front calipers and I stripped them almost gone.

I use them for autox and they work great.
