    I need to rebuild my brake calipers soon. Is there an opinion out there on where to get brake caliper rebuild parts – new rubber seals and clips. Ate parts are still available. I assumed that the pistons would be of standard metric size where there might be other manufacturers with comparable or perhaps better replacement parts

    Aaron: try Bill Badurski on FCA Tech Forum. He just published a 2-part series on complete rebuild of brakes for his Daytona in PH.

    about 4 days before I was to drive my 365 to a show in Pennsylvania, I realized that my right front caliper had frozen. Geoff Ohland at Partsource had new pistons and seals to me w/in 48 hours. And I drove to the show.

    Inspect your pistons before ordering; if any pits can be polished out, do it. New pistons ain't cheap.
