ANYBODY HAVE A SOURCE FOR CHEAP SEAL KITS FOR BRAKE CALIPERS? I HAVE AN 82 XJ AND MY LOCAL DEALER WANTS OVER 80 BUCKS A PIECE FOR THE KITS, WHICH INCLUDE THE PISTONS, WHICH I DON'T NEED. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

Generally if there not leaking all they need is a good cleaning and fluid change.
Out of about 10 brake jobs only had to get kits for a couple.
