I am trying to fit new pistons into new seals.
The manual says to:
- fit the seal into the bore - done.
- fit the dust cover lower edge into the caliper groove - aargh (not done).
- slide the piston through the dust cover and past the bore seal into the caliper - tried this first and it won't get past the seal even with liberal amounts of new fluid.
What is the trick in getting the dust cover in place and then managing to keep it there while I try and fight the piston past the seal without damaging it?
