Well worth it, rebuild these folks. Mine are perfect for rebuild. Thanks for this great video, and oh, if you have a break hone use that too. The lip seal tool came with your kit?
I assume when you call those seals umbrella seals, you mean lip seals, as opposed to o-ring seals that seem to be all the rage nowadays. Being an old guy, I’m not convinced the o-ring seals are superior.
I’m not sure as this was a while ago. I have a whole set of them and I don’t think they are marked. You can also use a light grit sandpaper or even steel wool. Thanks for watching!

I got the kit from the customer, who got it from eBay. The kit comes with the installation tool. I hope this helps and good luck!
Lubricate with brake fluid would help the seals go in. Also there is a torque spec for the caliper halves that is important.
Is that lip seal tool really needed?
It helps. Might be able to sneak it in without it
This is a ton of fun, working on my Corvette is like an addiction haha.
Where did u get the slide sylinder to install the umbrella seal on piston into the caliper bore ?
It came with the seal kit
@@AutoScholarwithMrB what seal kit and where did u get it at ?
@@MikeGodlyK customer brought it to me, he said he got it on eBay.
@@AutoScholarwithMrB do you know where I could get one at ?
@@MikeGodlyK search “c3 caliper rebuild kit” and you should be able to find something
Where did you get the kits? I'd like the tool to install the seals.
The person I did this for got them on eBay
For me it’s not worth the time
