Im rebuilding a R1 caliper and having an issue. I got all the piston seals in, no problem. 2 of the dust seals went in. The last 2 dust seals don't want to go. All the seals are original (old). You know how some rubber parts seem to expand if they soak up oil or grease? That is how these seem. Like the OD is too big.
I've got them sandwiched in some paper towels with a little weight on them in hopes they may dry and shrivel a bit.
Anyone have some pointers other than buying new seals? Need to dry these things out. The ones that wont go in are a bit bigger in Od than the ones that did.
There are two different sizes and I am putting the right ones in the right place
