If I remember correctly, you can pop the pistons out without splitting the caliper halves, if you’re just going to put new seals in.

 

I forgot to mention in my previous email about the rear calipers, that the rebuild kit for the parking brake mechanism I could only find through Dennis McCann Ferrari Parts many years ago. They have since retired and now the business is “Tom Vail’s All Ferrari Parts”. I never checked to see if he continues to stock that specific kit, nor have I checked the other suppliers (which may carry them by now. Superformance UK is a good bet. Maybe Keegan can get his hands on it too). That’s if you want to dig that deep into the rebuild...

Subject: [Ferrari] Brake Caliper - to split or not to split

 

Before I create a problem do I need to split the calipers? Or is it possible to get the pistons out & rebuild keeping it intact?
 
Doing a bath remodel at home and promised wife tile time this weekend so questions instead of just jumping in.
