Who did the caliper refinishing? Looks great. I need to do mine but the stealership wants 1k which seems too high considering that didn't include any rebuild costs.

Don't ask me why, but this was the most fun part of the build so far. I'm such a poser...

New piston seals, dust boot, connecting tubes, and speed bleeders! I gotta say, it wasn't too bad. I never disassembled a caliper. For some reason it scared me. It's not bad at all. Make sure you use assembly lube.

Speed bleeder

If you don't have speed bleeder, why? It's gotta be the best invention! All reintalled and nothing leaks. Imma leave it overnight before putting the wheels back on to see if anything leaks over night. Any tips?

Thanks. Your brake rebuild components made it real easy. You should really push those speed bleeders. I couldn't believe I never used them before. After using them, I'll never touch another caliper again unless it has a speed bleeder. I'm so easily amused...
