Morning. I screwed my caliper up changing my pads at the weekend and now the piston sticks and binds and it's basically fooked.... The other side i took my time with and it's fine!

Got hold of a reconned unit yesteday luckily and should be here tomorrow

Now..

Last time i tried to change a rear caliper i made a right hash of it and ruined the handbrake plastic clip and the attachment hook (ended up needing a new cable)

1. How do you get the plastic retaining cable white clip out of the caliper without ruining it so it will go again?

2. Lastly how do you get the rear hook off the spring without damaging the cable?

answers on a postcard please!
