does anyone have a good picture showing how the two small pieces slide in to hold the caliper in place are supposed to be installed, this is my first d60, and took it apart months ago, and can't remember how they were installed. i've looked through the d60 bible, brake bible, and searched, couldn't find what i wanted.

from what I recall, sorry no pics

The smaller piece with the slight arc in it goes on the bottom with the tail hook facing the wheel side and down.

the larger one you can test fit to make sure the bolt hole lines up correctly

put the caliper in, then the bottom arc piece barley, put the top piece in and tap them BOTH in at the same time adjusting between them so the bolt hole lines up and the the hook hits the mounting bracket.

when you start try to have the caliper all the way up in the bracket, it will make life a little easier

hope that helps
