I just bought a rebuild kit for my front caliper. Everything looks right, except the seal between the caliper and piston doesn't have the little ridge that rides in the caliper housing. The replacement looks more like a squared off o-ring whereas the original had that extra line molded around the outer circumference.
Does that little extra rib in the seal really matter? Or do most rebuild kits look like the one I bought?
Thanks all! This is my first brake rebuild and I just want to make sure I get it right - brakes matter!
