I was rebuilding the calipers for my B this weekend, and managed to
mangle two of the metal rings that retain the outer seals.
(I would not have done so had I checked Barney's webpage first. The
method on this page:

works brilliantly.)
My question: can the metal rings be bought separately? I don't want
to waste a rebuild kit if I only need the metal rings.
One cool thing I figured out and wanted to pass along: u-bolts from
the rear axle have the same bolt spacing as the calipers and make a
good stand for holding the caliper while painting it. (The caliper I
did rebuild is now grey; no red/yellow/purple etc. for me)
