That little cotter pin holding the ebrake

[Redlyne_mr2]

For those of you who have remove the ebrake cable from the bracket on the caliper, youll remember there is an odd shaped cotter pin. Well removing it is easy putting it back on is impossible. Anyone have any tricks, I swear I almost dug the pin trhough my finder trying to push it back into the hole.

get a new pin thats my trick or line it up and try to tap it in with a hammer or something.

Make sure the hole through the pin is clogged or corroded. I don't remember it being hard at all.

Not that hard.

Needle nose pliers to hold it. Push it into place, maybe tap it with a hammer if you really need to.
