Do the dust boots on front Bendix calipers used on 1988 Volvo 760 have a metal ring that needs to be pressed into the caliper? :?:

I will answer my own question. I ordered a caliper repair kit from O'Reilly auto parts for US$9.99, when I picked up my kit it is an OEM Bendix kit including 2 seals, 4 boots, 2 bleeder screw rubber caps, a tube of loctite and 2 containers of lubricant. The exact parts kit at NAPA lists for US$49.79 there are 2 types of dust boots included in the kit, the 2 dust boots that my caliper uses have a outside metal part that presses into the caliper bore just like any engine seal.
