Replace One Front Caliper or Both? 850 1996

It should not be a problem to replace/rebuild just the problematic one. As for rebuild, I've only done it on an airplane's caliper; it may not be too different with a car caliper. Basically, you'd pop the piston(s) out... clean the entire assembly with brake cleaner then alcohol, and replace any o-rings or the piston(s) if that is worn out too.

The easiest way is to take your old caliper out and trade it in for a rebuilt with the parts department.
