What part specifically are you having issues with? The piston, the seal, or the dust boot? And front or rear?

The rears. Couldn't get it past the boot for the longest time. Eventually got it forced in. Don't know the proper way to do it but it's on, lost alot of fluid and got a ton of air in the brake system lol.

I used this method to reset the rears.

But I used a ratchet instead of a drill, worked like a charm.
