Default Need to borrow brake caliper tool

Anybody have the lip seal install tools I can borrow? I ruined 2 seals already trying to do it by hand. Glad to pay shipping both ways or just buy the 2 tools if you want

I do not loan out tools....but I have them...bring your stuff ( paper towels, brake fluid and anything else to install them) by my shop and you can use them at no cost.

I will be at the shop tomorrow..so call me. I will be there from 10 am to 4pm.

Thanks for the offer - but I'm 2 seals short anyway since I tore them. I'd have to come back, so I'll just wait until my parts come in.

You can use a Popsicle stick. It's works every time. Go get an ice cream bar and then keep the stick for your seals.

THANK YOU!

I try to do unto others as I would hope they would do for me.

I 'pay it forward'...because there are guys in my profession who help me when I need it and I feel it is the right thing to do.
