Rear calipers

I have an 09 f250 it seems like every 14-16 months I have to have rear calipers replaced. Has anyone ran into this? Is there a better alternative to oem calipers?

I used to. Change your hoses and flush with new brake fluid with tire rotations (at least once a yr anyway). I also switched to stainless braided brake lines. Been 3-4 yrs since my last caliper. Did about 10 prior to that.
