Thanks for any info

I learned this the hard way on a Sunday afternoon. Went to separate the calipers and they twisted, shearing this little o-ring in half. And you're right, they're not included in the rebuild kit.

So....

Go to Napa or Autozone and buy a complete O-ring kit with various sizes. I luckily found an open store that evening and one of the sizes worked perfectly. Just match them up and you're good to go. Never had any problems with it.
