front brakes have been sticking on my africa twin so ive tried to clean and free off the pistons....have used g clamp to move pistons back and gently pressed the front brake but it looks like rubber is being squeezed out of sides of pistons....is it a hard job to replace rubber seals...do pistons need to come right out...can anyone give me a stage by stage guide as to how to do this job....thanks...kevsky...

The hardest part of the job is removing a seized piston other than that it is easy.
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
