rear caliper overhaul kit

I'm trying to figure out which direction to go with my rear brakes. If you recall, the right rear is squealing and the bottom caliper pin and bore were corroded. I was looking at isuzuparts.com and found a caliper overhaul kit for the rear disc brakes on my '97. The question is....

What is in the caliper overhaul kit?

I'm guessing a couple of o-rings for each bore, new caliper pins, and some grease? The price is $32 or so. This would be cheaper than laying out $140 something each for new calipers.

$140 per caliper? Are they made of gold or something? I got a pair of rear calipers from Advance Auto with a lifetime warranty for ~$75 ea. (unloaded).

Ahh. Good to know. You can pay a few hundred a caliper for some fancy ones with yellow paint! Good as gold!
