it would be hard to see if its the piston! They are like normal pistons. You have to use a winding tool on them to wind them back in.

I did mine last summer, easy job.



That's what mine looked like before I regreased them. The rubber sleeve they run in was bone dry too - not good.

Ahh on the rears, yeah well if you can wind it back you know its not seized. but yeah if they were bone dry that'd probably be the problem
