Brake Caliper machining and replacement process for a classic '70 Corvette. This vette came in to the shop for service and its brake calipers were leaking. Corvette calipers often leak so in order to replace them, we start with a restored set. These often need to be faced on their parting surfaces in order to get a good seal and prevent leaks, then rebuilt with new springs and piston kits before they are installed on the car. Do you have a corvette that needs service in the LA area? Give us a call!
