If you don't split the calipers, it's a real b**** getting that cylinder hone
in there. I have never had one leak when I reassembled it. If it's going to
leak, it will be at the piston seal since it is a moving part.

I believe that it is officially "not recommended" to split the calipers,
which is why the o-ring between them is not included in the kits. Still,
that hasn't stopped a number of Spit owners succcessfully splitting and
re-assembling their calipers. I believe most have re-used the old o-ring,
I'm not sure if anyone has found a satisfactory replacement but they may
well have.
