Hi all, new to the list and performing the first brake job on my newly acqu=
ired daily driver.  The rear rotors were disintegrating when I bought it, a=
nd in replacing them, I've discovered that the caliper slides move only wit=
h much coercing. :-)

The rubber boots are shot as well, otherwise I'd just clean/lube the slides=
.  Any good place to buy a rebuild kit for the slides?  The pistons on both=
 rear calipers seem okay, and the boots on them are intact.  I haven't disa=
ssembled the fronts yet, but I anticipate having to replace the slide boots=
 there as well.  If the parts are available separately, I'd just as soon sk=
ip rebuilding the piston part of the caliper for now.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
