Good morning!
Spent a rainy Saturday PM rebuilding a rear caliper. Everything went fine until I got to re-installing the adjuster on the parking brake half. Am having a hard time holding the spring/cover down and compressing the circlip to fit. That the circlip doesn't have any holes in the ends makes things more difficult . . . . Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Steve A- |

Jim,
Thanks for the tip. Just got back from the hardware store with new circlips and a 5" C-clamp. The clamp and an 11mm "deep" socket work like a champ to hold the spring-hat in place, but the ears on the new circlip will need to be ground down to clear the hat. Looks like I'm back on track . . . Thanks again, Steve A- |
