    Default JDM caliper reseal

    So I've repainted my JDM calipers and I am about to put the rest of the seals back in, all brand new.

    Just need to know what order the seals go in around the piston from factory. Obviously the expanding one is the last, but I'm not sure about the other two.

    If someone could scan a service manual or something that would be great.

    Cheers

    First of all get the cailiper and all parts clean and dry, with no gunk or rust in the groove where the seal goes. Get the piston clean and dry, and pollished smooth with a rag. (Don't use sandpaper or anything on the piston, but it will survive some wire wheel action if needed. It is hard-chrome, I think). If there is oil or grease on anything, clean off with brake cleaner. Don't let oil or grease get near the seals. Lube everything with rubber grease only. Put the main square seal in first. Then push the piston all the way in. Put the dust seal on, making sure it gets in it's groove. Place the metal circlip in the groove, which holds the dust seal in place.
