Re: Replacing caliper seals on 505 rear disc brakes

If the caliper leaks brake fluid, there is more damage than to the outer
seal, and the caliper should be disassembled and rebuilt. The outer seal
can be replaced with the caliper on the car, but it won't stop a fluid leak.
I have the kits for $8.00.
