Hate to ask but have messed with these things for over an hour without any luck. Would someone happen to have a picture or diagram that shows how the 3 clips fit on the front two-piston PBR caliper. I forgot to look at one on a car when I was at the salvage yard last week. I’m sure the odd one fits in the opening between the pistons but can't figure out how the ends ones fit.

Also, do you have to assemble the pads and clips in the caliper while it is off the rotor and then put the complete unit on the rotor?

Many thanks

Lots of pictures and instructions beginning on page 44 of the manual.

Many thanks Jorge...............much appreciated.

Jeff - are you referring to a Haynes/Clymer service manual? If so, I definitely need to get one.
