Guys,

 

Two questions:

 

1.      Is there a rubber seal of some sort between the 2 halves of the
brake calipers?

 

2.      If so, does anyone have any experience taking them apart and
reassembling them without any issues?

 

The repair manual, and several folks I've talked to, warn against taking
them apart. I need to paint mine and would like to powder coat them, but
if there's a rubber seal in there, it'll never make it through the 400
deg. curing cycle. It seems that there is no magic here about
disassembling the calipers as long as they are properly re-torqued.

 

Thanks
