Depends what kind of guy you are I suppose... sure they're rebuildable. You can blast them and paint them and get a caliper rebuild kit and be ready to roll. It will take a bit of time, so I guess the question really is it worth the time to rebuild them...? Get you some SS braided brake lines and you'll have something you can be proud of.

i would be the type to rebuild them, but when i pulled them out the first time and tried to pound out the pins that hold the pads in... those suckers would move worth nothing...

napa does have remfd calipers for decent prices... i dont know... i just want to get her back on the streets asap
