    About ready to light my E30 on fire

    There is about to be one less E30 in the world if I can't get the dust boot on my Girling pistons. I have no idea how I was able to get the first one on. Now I'm on the driver's side and this is all I need to be done with my brake refresh.
    I've tried just about every angle, the freezer trick, everything.

    I will pay someone if they can get the second one on. PLEASE, I'm desperate. Currently laying on my back on my cold garage floor with a shirt covered in brake fluid, their are burns on my shoulders and chest from the fluid and I had a few drops of brake fluid go flying into my eye.

      maybe you cocked it sideways. if you have an air compressor you can shoot it out and try again.

          Need help installing the dust boot on the front caliper pistons, I've removed and cleaned both pistons already ^ Really appreciate the help however.

              If it's not one thing, it's another with this fucking car. Snapped the bleeder screw clean off as I was bleeding the brakes.

                              Why are you lying on the ground to change the dust boot? Do it on the bench. Why exactly can't you get it on?

                              Buy a screw extractor set to get that bleeder out.

                                  Brake fluid in your eye? Can you still see to type?
