1972 Duster Build with my Daughter
Lube up the seal with brake fluid
Then install it in the groove, coat the metal with some fluid so it won't rust
The boot has a lip that fits in the first groove
The easiest way is to put the boot over the piston and set it in the groove then expand the accordion
Next slide it down so the lip that fits in the caliper groove clears the end of the piston and start the rear first
This is an art but if you twist and guide it in the lip will seat in the caliper. Make sure the lip on the piston is not folded in and under. Here you can see it is unfolded and on the piston
Simply wiggling and rocking should get it in past the main o-ring.
