Hi guys, new to this posting stuff so bare with me.
Replacing the front brake caliper seals and refitting with new pistons aswell.
After a few hours of cleaning and scrubbing all was ready to rebuild but here is where the trouble starts.
Fitted the new seals and piston and then went so fit the steel retaining ring (if thats what you call it) but is not playing the game!
After F ing and blinding I have walked away defeated having bent two of the clips and put a screwdriver through my hand (Ouch!)
So im asking, hows it done.... is there a special tool or is it a pig of a job.
If it is a pig of a job, then is there a certain make to buy that fit better. Are the aftermarket ones s**te?
