I bought a set of front/rear rubber boots from 914Rubber for the parking brake cables. In my ignorance, I figured I could stretch them over the caliper clevis end. Not happening. So what is the trick to replacing them? Thought I needed to pull the cable out of the housing, but looking at a diagram, there are 'big' ends on both.
Am I just not stretching the boot enough? |
