hmm. i dont know what to say. ive never had a problem getting the pads in or putting it back on the disc.

maybe your piston is too far out and you need to push it back in?

That seems like a likely problem.

If the brake fluid is near the top of the range you may need to empty some of it...
or watch it carefully- not letting it overflow.

Get a C-clamp, center it & gently tighten... making sure the brake piston stays lined up square.

the prob is
when i put the little pad on the big one has to loop around the pegs and then pushes the little one of of its clips

Somebody should give this guy a phone number to call if he needs it done by tomorrow morning!

(my new brakes get installed by a mechanic tomorrow morning! )
