I re-built my front ones and they're ok. You need to make sure you hone out the cylinders real well & make sure the pistons (whateverthey'recalled) are smooth also. When it came time to do the rear I just bought re-builts. It was alot easier and worth the slight amount spent on it. I recommend the re-builds unless you are REALLY strapped for cash.

: $26.50 to replace from autozone each side. The rebuilt kit is about 4 bucks. I figure that both sides have to be done so I won't blow out the other. hanks Earl it was bad. Now have any of you guys had luck rebuilding the cylinders or should I just replace them? Thanks for the help.
