Just starting my kit and trying to install my front calipers over the rotors.
The rotors are fully 1" wide.
But the space between the brake pads is only 15/16".
The pistons seem fully compressed

What am I missing here?
Do I have mismatched parts? It must be me.

Seem ??

Which calipers and rotors are you using?

Get a large C clamp and compress the piston into the caliper that last little bit. Mine acted the same way until I got them pistons in all the way.

Clamped the piston and now it fits. Moving on.

Thank you!
