| Wasn't there something about not reusing the through bolts? If they were 
installed torque-to-yield you wouldn't want to reuse them, methinks.

Ken, 
Jack is right, of course. The only reason I'm butting in - apart from habit 
- is that there used to be a fair weight of opinion against splitting 
callipers. Supposedly they would "never go back together" properly or 
perhaps the trade wanted to a) sell more new ones &/or b) be the only ones 
"rebuilding" them. In most cases the rebuild seems to be:- splitting them, 
stripping out the parts (the rubber), putting in new seals, reassembly, 
paint/lacquer. Or is the reassembly after the paint? No matter. Anyhow, I've 
done it. Anyone can do it unless the callipers are beyond all help. 
I think I got the seals from Norman Nock but I really can't be sure. 
Do them yourself. 
Simon.
