Next, put the pad retaining springs back into the top and bottom of the caliper housing. Unlike the front where you had to adhere the pads to the caliper and then put the caliper back onto the carrier...for the rears, you place the pads onto the pad retaining springs. Make sure the pads are flush against the rotor, then simply place the caliper housing onto the pads and screw your new self locking bolts back on. Don't forget to reconnect the parking brake cable and put that parking brake retaining clip back on.
