the lip seal tool works for all the pistons. You have to keep slight pressure while running the tool around the circumference.

The lip faces into the case, so you need a lip seal tool or a feeler guage to get it in without damage. I like to use a tapered feeler gauage that is about .022" thick. Works just fine if you can't get the tool. They tool is only about $10 though, and a NAPA or good auto parts store will either have one or can order it for you.
