Good Saturday afternoon,
After owning my Bronco ll for nearly 10 years I am freshening up the front brakes,
including new rotors.' 85, manual lockers. Was all ready to tear into it, removed the
caliper, (of course) before realizing the outer "snap ring" either has broken ears, or none
by design, if that's the case, there sure is a heckuva gap...
In my Haynes manual and the diagram on this site the clip appears to
NOT have ears. However it is a drawing, so not sure. I've done the forum search
and can't really find anything pertaining to my generation, a Ford part number,42570
was mentioned for early-mid 90's. It's gonna suck getting it off for sure. Don't want to go
much further til I know I can get it removed and have another ready. Any help
is welcomed.
