Emergency Brake Spring

[CDAWN]

I recently changed the rear pads on my 95 GT and in doing so removed the tension spring for the emergency brake. Does anyone know if a tool exists for putting that spring back on? I've tried vice gribs to compress it, but that hasn't worked yet. Any suggestions?

they do sell brake spring tools. you should look into hitting that up

why did you disconnect that spring in the first place?

no lie, when I was doing my rear 13" conversion, I accidently shot one of those springs off the caliper and across the garage, trying to pry out the Pbrake cable. Messed with it for about an hour calmly and about a half hour more working myself into a rage..lol, then got in the 'ol Xploder, went to Oriellys, spent $42 on new caliper. no lie.
