N – hope you had some water, etc., what a mess 127 is serious heat. No worse for the wear?
The I5 at Grapevine Road, (southbound) had a huge accident on Thursday, it happened about 2:30.
Collision with two big rigs, oil spilled from a tanker truck, caused a grass fire, haz mat response, etc. I was on 99 south,
near McFarland. Heard about the wreck on the local news. Traffic was backed up
to Bakersfield. It was about 105 degrees at 3:30PM. Turned around and went
over on Friday morning. Got stuck in a winter storm near Gorman a few years back. One extreme
to the other.
BTW, I tried rebuilding my brake calipers on my 220. They were a mess. Got rebuilds
from NAPA, pleased with the results. Also sourced hoses, - Semperit brand in NAPA boxes.

As long as your rebuilt kit has the special O-Rings to seal the halves to - gether, why not ? .
If you have problems, re assemble and exchange @ your FLAPS .
This heat is killing me too .
We got stuck in a traffic jam on the Grapevine on i5, it reached 127° F for a while .

Hey Nate, is there any reason to not split these calipers? They are really hard to get into the bore to clean. As long as there is no o-rings or a gasket , it sure looks easy to break them in half for cleaning. What do you think? I am really tired of summer. Hot, hot and then hotter. Haven't been able to see for weeks due to smoke, smells like a campfire 24/7. Uck. Max
