Hi all,

Just put in new pads. I noticed the retainers had separated at the rivet so got a new set of those.

Just turning by hand and I hear some scraping. It seems to be the rivet making contact with outer edge of rotor.

I think there is only one way these go on but here are some pics in case. Note pin is not pressed all the way in here as I was checking things after I heard scraping.

Thanks

Mike

Doh! Just figured it out. Outer pad down too far. Pin not going through hole but sitting above it.

Neither pin looks seated.
