[QUOTE="J Piroth, post: 688054, member: 62488"] Todd, I've already had to replace my calipers once because the phenolic (thanks, never knew how to spell that) pistons failed, and last time I had it in for a brake job the pistons were sticking again. They lubed them and got them working again, but the mech said that at some point they were likely to fail too, he just couldn't say whether it'd be in one year or five. Do you know of any replacement calipers with metal pistons? If these go south as well, I'd rather not replace them with with another set that'll die so soon. (I've only got 39K on my '01 Trac.)
