Front Brake Caliper Halves - Rejoining and seals.

I have just had my front calipers back from being acid washed to get some seized pistons outs.

On their return, I've noticed there is a a recessed drilling on one of the calipers sides, where the two halves mate together.

Should there be rubber seals in this recess or are they simply joined back together with sealer such as hylomar or something?

I ask as there is currently nothing present.

thanks,

Fraser
 
To elaborate, the seal doesn't come in the repair kits but is available separately. I don't have a link to a source handy.

Hi Fraser,
These caliper half seals were never made available even with gen girling kits. work shop manual states calipers not to be separated!
That said i get all my seals ( including the caliper half seals ) from a company called Power Track
WWW.Powertrackbrakes.co.uk. / chap there name of Paul Hunt, found him very helpful.
Regards,
Clive.
