Caliper refurb?

Hi all..

I'm looking for someone to refurb some Ford brake calipers - strip down, replace seals etc. and prep. I'm hoping this will be cheaper than buying new calipers!!

Anyone to be recommended?

Thanks!

They're ~2004 Mondeo front calipers. I want them to be made as-new, eg rebuild, not just exchange for something that works.

Bigg Red gets my vote too. Either supply you with a kit to do yourself or can supply refurb'd calipers ready to bolt on.
