Brake Caliper - Seized Piston - Replace Or Overhaul?

[vinnyh]

Further to my previous post re overheating brake and flat tyres! (link here)

After taking the brake caliper off, one of the pistons will only retract with considerable pressure from a g-clamp. The other retracts easily. When trying the brakes, the good piston extends but the bad one just stays put.

Is it worth attempting to overhaul, or should I just get hold of a new caliper with pistons? If new is best, where is the cheapest place to pick one up?

hi pull the siezed piston out and check the area between the dust seal and piston seal it rusts here and makes the piston stick
