Jesse,

I don't usually rebuild the calipers, I buy them rebuilt due to the close 
tolerances and impatient big fingers.

But in the past when I have had something with such close tolerances, I 
would put the part that needed to be larger in very hot water, and the part 
that needed to be smaller in the freezer for a short time, then put them 
together.

Sometimes, the thermal expansion and contraction will give you just enough 
clearance to make the difference.

good luck
