help me replace my brake pads
Im replacing the disc brake pads on my 78 f150 4x4. Im almost done. Im curently trying to get the caliper support spring and key back in place. It keeps popping out. Its annoying. I can do it but its taking forever for such a small thing. Any tips?

I usually just put the spring on the caliper side of the 'I beam' and tap them in with a small hammer. If it doesn't want to go together, then something isn't lined up correctly, check the pads and make sure the top of the caliper is seated correctly.
