Hello
I poked around on the forum and surprisingly did not find any info on my particular challenge. I had to remove the three pistons, which was okay. Well, not really in the bigger picture but I got them out. Then on the rebuild I was able to insert the dust seal in the figure-8 side but the big piston side was a bit loose. Now, the issue is the dust seal just interferes with the piston when you try to push it through, and it basically won't go through and also the seal gets disturbed. I see how the ID of the seal needs to match the diameter of the groove on the piston so it obviously needs to be (quite a bit) smaller than the piston.
What am I missing here? In the manual they just magically go in.
