Nice looking trike. I love the look of the Z's. What kind and size are the tires on the rear? I've seen them before but never knew the name of the tires.

they're turf tamers. was in a pinch for tires cuz i bought it down in oregon with paddles and had it shipped up here where paddles are useless. paid $55 for them shipped and they have over 75% left on them. 20x11x8 i believe they are. Its kinda dirty in the pics. and i am working on getting the plastic back into shape. but its an idea....

Put the piston in first... Then put the seal in.

1st get some really fine emery cloth and clean that piston..looks like there is a bit of smudge or something. Super clean so it seals and doesn't leak brake fluid.

Thanks, 250sx. you're thread was really helpful. i tried looking for something down that line the other day, but the search turned up nothing. Does the dust seal pull out? i tried and it looks like it is attached to the rubber O ring with the metal o ring keeping the setup in place.(maybe it was just seriously gummed up) I did thoroughly scrub it down with break cleaner but it might just have some scratches. Will it affect diameter if i sand it down so its smooth? it would only be taking off micrometers so it should still seal properly, right? What photo viewer did you post those pics with 250sx? my computer isn't letting me look at them... Thanks
