Default Caliper rebuild

I have a disk brake swap that has been sitting for a while would you recomend a rebuild and how difficult is it to do?

I wouldn't rec. a rebuild unless it needs it. Do the pistons push in without binding, and is the rubber cracked/torn etc. If not run it.

For the trouble of rebuilding your calipers you can just purchase a reman'd one with a lifetime warranty.
