Rear brake springs
I'm installing my M-tuned rear sport brake conversion kit, I ran into a small problem.
Are the springs the same on the 1.6 and 1.8? I bought a caliper hardware kit for a 1.8 today but I cant seem to get the springs to stay no matter how I position them.
The brake pads are axxis ultimates, they dont have the little holes in them for the springs like the pads for the 1.6 do. They do have a protrusion on them that the 1.6 pads don't have.
Anyone else run into this?
here are some pics
Top pad is the 1.8, bottom the 1.6
