caliper pots sticking

caliper pots sticking

I rebuilt the calipers on my 97 xj900 diversion.

The pots will move out but not back in so the brakes are nit stuck on but make it very hard to free wheel the bike. I rebuilt them again and it’s the same issue!

I used spurious seals and was wondering of this is the cause?

Caliper and pots were cleaned meticulously!
