Calipers - Boots Torn
I recently changed the brakes for my wife's cousin on her 06 Town & Country. Everything went fairly smoothly, but I noticed that the piston boots for the calipers were torn on both sides.
There didn't appear to be any sort of fluid leakage that I was able to see, but I'd like to nip it before it becomes a real problem later on. Are the calipers rebuildable or should I just tell her to get some new calipers?

The boots DONT hold fluid in...they hold dust OUT.
I know of no place to get Caliper "PARTS"...But I'm sure if you are that determined, they are around somewhere.
Now.....Yes The calipers SHOULD be changed....But real world says not to lose much sleep over the torn boots.
