If you need, I can try to dig up the part number to it. I've rebuilt one side so far, and have been too lazy to do the other.

It's a pain to get the piston out, and a super pain to get the boot back onto the piston. Patience is key.

YMMV.

Isaw the boot kit you spoke of and it does indeed cost $22.00, but I can't figure out if the reason the other kit costs so much more is because it includes all the parts of the caliper. Anyhoo, I'll try your route first and save myself a little dough... or redirect that dough to a set of cryo-treated rotors. Yes, yes, that sounds like a plan.
