I'm rebuilding a pair of 76 C10 front calipers and can't get the piston dust boots to stay in place. They fit the piston side fine, but the metal ring that's supposed to press into the caliper housing just pops right out. Has anyone ever run into this? I'm half tempted to try to glue them in with some RTV. I'm using an AC Delco kit.
