I just replaced the rear brake pads on my truck. I had only 25,000 miles on them and they were wore down to the rivets. I am now convinced that I need calipers as they have 165K on them. My question is, should I go with the more expensive and replace the whole caliper or has anyone had good luck rebuilding them. The replacement is $40.00 each, but the kit/piston is $15.00 each side. I've also noticed that in the morning the brake pedal goes all the way to the floor (spongy), but after driving it a few miles the brakes feels nice and firm.
