[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1445075, member: 19880"] You might get away with a Helicoil or TimeSert repair if you can't find a decent used part. The new price for the entire assembly was cheaper than I expected but why pay for it if you don't have to. I have seen corroded pistons on calipers so look out for that if you are buying used... If it is an issue, you could probably re-use the piston from your caliper. I typically use just a touch of antiseize on the threads of the pins - both front and rear brakes. Other than the first removal, I haven't had any issues. (They let go with a "snap" and a fair amount of effort the first time, but without any damage.) [/QUOTE]
