I'd bet that the calipers on the later CV8 are the same as the VXR calipers, I know the discs are bigger.
Certainly the rears are.
Seal kits appear to be dirt cheap from RockAuto.

Certainly cheap enough to gamble IMO.

Were they easy to replace?

I've done this too and if I can do it, anyone can. Generic rebuild which can be found on YouTube.
