Brake Caliper dust boot?

I second that. The fronts I used rebuilts from the local NAPA store.
Everything is shining new, even the piston. The green coated caliper
is an anti-rust compound. Then you know it's not new.

If you didn't flush the brake fluid every year or two then the piston
and bore may have rust. You'll spend too much time and get bad
results. In that case go with rebuilts. Mine were flush every year
with Valvoline Syntech or Castrol GT LMA (Low Moisture Activity), so
I'll work on the rear with Beck and Arnely rubber kit as a
preventative thing. Yearly flushes didn't prevent one front OEM
caliper from seizing up on me (leaky seal) so I am going the
preventative route.

CDN$9 is amazing. Single piston kits will cost double that in the US.

Curious as to the condition of the piston/bore and rubber piston seal?
Any rust in there?
