4800 miles....need changing, take the exhaust off,...heat shield,...calliper...oh my god, took me forty minutes of fumbling to get the old pads out!

Now..is there a knack/easy way to install the new - the spring retaining clip is proving challanging to say the least...I am getting to the stage where they will be fitted without it.

My last set of pads jammed up. One pad was practically new and the other was worn right down to the steel. My Forza was one of the very first.

Where are these clips that are giving you problems?
