Brakes E-brake Spring Rear Caliper

[tremblay]

Hello,

I took off the darn spring when doing one of the rear brakes and now I can't put it back on and it's being a real PITA. there must be a special tool for this? If someone could point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

No special tools needed, just need to know how to hook it back on. Unfortunately, not easy to explain online. A pair of channel locks to help compress the spring may help though.

If you are still stuck, pick up a reman caliper and just swap the caliper and bleed that brake and you'll be good to go.

Just force it on.
