Brake Caliper Rebuild

Has anyone done a rebuild on a front brake caliper before. There does not seem to be much on here.

No, it is not, but it is dirty and unappreciated job, with lot of potential liability.
Years ago I bought brake cylinder honing tool and new seals for my motorhome were about $1 a piece.
I doubt you will find seals sold separately for MB.

I would suspect that caliper replacement is the more common route - with reman calipers $65 without pads each side - and reman calipers pre-loaded with pads like $100 ea side.

Same "dirty job" coming out - and certainly cleaner/easier going back in.

Keep the beat !
