Brake Wheel Cylinder Piston Seals 1998 TRD

1998 Tacoma TRD
I just finished replacing the little seals that fit on the pistons inside the rear brake wheel cylinders.

What a bear!!!

I ruined the tips on both thumbs trying to stretch the new seal over the end of the piston so I could slide it into the seal groove. Don't know how I finally did it but it took about 20minutes each!

I still have one wheel to go. Is there some technique to doing this? The darn things are so slippery!
