I fit them to the bottom of piston then fit them to the caliper and push the piston into the bore if I recall correctly.

Hi,

Can someone kindly remind me of the proper/easiest way to fit the seals into
my MkII BT7's callipers? I'm referring to the rubber boot things that go
into the outer groove within the bore and the groove around the top of the
piston.

Likewise, don't I recall that the inner seal was slightly tapered? My new
ones are square in cross section.

Simon
