There isn't a writeup on it and I haven't even heard of anyone rebuilding them. Is there some other reason for wanting to rebuild them? A breaking issue? It's not really something you need to do.

Do you have a Helms manual?

I rebuilt my fronts. You will want access to an air compressor. It really helps for popping the piston out of the cylinder.
And actually, there is a write-up of it somewhere in the technical forum. Or at least a description of it.

if they aren't leaking..and nothign on them is damaged why take them apart? takign them apart needlessly may just cause problems with them tha totherwise wouldn't be there.
you should only rebuild them if the boot is torn..or the piston seal is leaking.
lol or if you just want to do it..i suppose that would be a good enough reason to do it.

He wants to powder coat them. To do that they need to be disassembled, hence need to be rebuilt when done. I had my rears done before.
Was I the only person who read that in the post?
