    Yes I know I'm an idiot......
    I was cleaning my brake calipers and working the pistons in and out and I pushed one to hard and it popped out another...... I was like F!@# I immediately tried to push it in and I got her in in about 35secs. After cleaning up the brake fluid, she seems to look ok and working properly.
    -Do I need to replace a seal? or is she good to go....
    Thanks in advance,
    Chuck

    Did you replace the fluid that was lost? More than likely you will be OK if she's not leaking fluid after it's been replaced...........just think, if you were replacing the piston seals anyway, the pistons would have to come out anyway....

    Yeah replaced fluid and re-bleed the whole system..... seems good to me, although I'm not sure if its my head but I feel my brake level isn't a hard as it use to be.... hahaha
