Hello So my 37 Biz coupe has split bore sizes on both the front and rear wheel cylinders. The rear has 1 1/8" and 1 1/4" with the mount bolts at 1 3/4" C-C spacing. Part number stamped in them-->22113 The front has 1 1/4" and 1 3/8" with the mount bolts at 1 15/16" C-C spacing. This is correct in my Service manual. BUT.. when I search for new rear wheel cylinders ( I need them) I get conflicting, but mostly, the 1 1/4" and 1 3/8" for bore diameters.. they show the different mounting spacing but the bore diameters are not the same as mine. here is the EBAY link that shows the wheel cylinder kits and specs--> https://www.ebay.com/itm/173593577530?epid=13024885152&itmmeta=01J0J3EB9N1EZ49K0FSFFENZJ9&hash=item286afbc83a:g:9gsAAOSw9sBdE7Fv&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8CH%2FU6lK8hMnLwq6D7DP4yVZXMIXJI7x8G8v4YXgVphFtUakLaSVW5BYMIjcJw1PBY24YtzJgk748yNdaimmVXKNr7ED8MKHl%2BeFmufNJOAcxJf2uoYkkwSRfR1FB%2Fx8BWtjtlRxlfodeisqn0fAZkRMOX%2F4R%2FsWdalc2mzCIbtJlATH4lgaxclSvXjHJftr8UAyO7DTeQRFMkCXJltESW%2BWDZnNy7%2BkeBGxhnHCQfkLSyvXnMaIC%2FxgbWAZPxuFMdHYztK5SICNGPc30Gyb5wJlOWUThEVysHV2Hv%2BOwolymf2TtlnYnrmc7TuBAFEiCw%3D%3D|tkp%3ABFBM9rS5w4Rk Questions: 1) What is the aftermarket part number for the rears with the bore diameters I have? 2) Can I install the larger Bore Diameters in my rear without issues since the mounting C-C is correct, or are they too big to install? Thanks in advance!

A couple of weeks ago I noticed a grabbing and dragging in my rt. front wheel. When I took off the wheel there was lots of brake dust, and evidence of moisture. When I peeled back the rubber dust cap on the wheel cylinders it was obvious that they were seeping. The cylinders are only 8 yrs old. So, I took off the cylinders, took them apart, cleaned them and ran a hone through them. Now I am trying to install the new seals. All of the info I can find simply says to clean and hone the cylinders, install the new parts and bingo! you're all done. What I am having problems with is trying to stretch the new seals onto the pistons. The inner dia. of the new seals looks similar to the inner dia of the old ones, but they are impossibly tight. I lubed them with brake fluid, but of course they are now slippery and even more difficult to work. I am reluctant to use something like pliers to grab and stretch the seals because I do not want to nick or damage the seal or the piston. What is the secret? Help!
