    I was talking to the guys down at pittwater brake and clutch (forums sponsors) and they were saying they'd rebuild em incl the kit 200$ less the disscount.. But if the pistons needed replacing it'd be more. They said they'd get the pistons for me...

    So using that experience, i imagine you should be able to go to a brake shop and ask for LN106 pistons... They may keep em or have to order them... But worth a shot no doubt...

    PBR make the new pistons they are about $25-35 depending your discount from the brake supplier, I think the pistons are also the same as HZ75 landcruiser.

    do some research and see if you can bore it and put larger a/m pistons in them.

    Purchased some pistons and seal kits yesterday for my LN106 brake caliper upgrade,
    Pistons cost me $20 each IBS part JB9001
    Seal Kit cost me $20 but did not include the channel seals for between the two caliper halves.

    The seals aren't included because it is not recommended to split them in half. Can't remember the exact reason why.

    bassicaly they are sealed and torqued up, i split mine and found the channel seals are messed up, so im gonna redo the channel seals, you are meant to replace the bolts as they are torqued until they strech
