4 piston calipers, reman or to rebuild?

[RETed]

The biggest problem with trying to rebuild brake calipers is that the bores / pistons are pitted due to corrosion.
This is especially true when you're trying to use parts that have been sitting around for a long time - i.e. junkyard.

At least with the reman, there should be a warranty in case you run into problems.

There is no real specialty tools to rebuild the brake calipers.
A pick is suggested, but you can get away with a toothpick...
The problem is more that you have to be detailed and inspect and lubricate everything properly.
