[Mgs] Rebuilding a brake caliper

[joseph cianciotti]

Okay, so I have to rebuild it or have it rebuilt. How complicated a  
job is it to do yourself? Is there a place where I can get step-by- 
step directions? And what about parts? Other than changing the pads,  
I've never done anything like this. Thanks for pointing me in the  
right direction.
