Default 68 rear caliper o'ring Kit ?

I have a leaky rear caliper it has the SS inserts with second design lip seal pistons with a o'ring style seal. This is a Vette brakes kit, I received 11307 kit and the seals or more flat and tapered. I wanted to install them tonight but I feel this is not the correct replacement sealing ring, any feedback?

As the kit stated. This seal kit will ONLY work on calipers with VB&P's pistons.

I do not know what you have...so hard to comment any further.

a lip seal piston cannot be used with an o ring. an o ring has no shape other than round.:thumbs:
