Default Caliper spring clip won't go back on.
ImageUploadedByTapatalk1337330728.381887.jpgSo was changing my brake pads tonight and everything was going fine until I tried to put the spring clip on the outside of the caliper back on and I simply cannot get that thing back on. I've spent an hour or two now trying to get them back on but they just fly off everytime I get close to getting it on. Anyone have any advice on how to get it back on?
