BMW E39 5 Series Brake Caliper Rebuild | 540i Restoration

If you don't see a problem does it mean it can't be there? Caliper rebuilds are a cheap and simple way to make sure you wont have excessive corrosion, leaking or failure of your brake calipers. As part of my restoration on this car this was a needed item.
