If the slider pin and bore are cleaned up with wire wool and wd40 until they slide easily, then pack with loads of grease to refit, they will last as long as any refurbed caliper.

A refurbed caliper will be seized in a year if it's not pulled apart and greased before fitting, I've seen it happen.

yea, sliders and pistons are sat in coke now, works well then a bit of fine sandpaper and then fine wire wool and they will be good as new :) got the Toyota seal kit here and some red rubber grease, going to get some more grease ordered.

the most important part of rebuilding calipers is making sure the seal seats are spotless. These ones are pretty clean but still need a wee wire brush.
