[alfa] rebuilding milano brembo calipers

[Carson or Wendy <dammwood@xxxxxxx>]

I asked questions about doing this several weeks ago. Finally got around 
to it a couple of days ago. The reason I was doing this as one caliper 
had started to seize. Got some good advise to use actual ATE rebuild 
kits, not aftermarket and they worked a treat. Got them from Performatek 
and was very happy with the service from them. The only thing that threw 
me for a bit was getting my compressed air into the caliper, I ended up 
taking the little rigid line off the caliper. I didn't at the time have 
an 11mm flare nut wrench, I was lucky in that I could coax a 7/16 
flarenut wrench to work but I am going to have one on hand for next 
time. This was a straight forward job, had the right parts and not too 
much rust.... :-)
