How difficult is it to change the front brake caliper rubber dust boot? Do you need to take the caliper apart?

You need to remove the piston. We use to replace them on vehicle a long time ago. Remove the caliper, then use low pressure air into the caliper hose fitting to push the piston out. Replace the O-rings too.
