That weird spring clip on the Trailing arm that holds the E brake line...
 
How the heck does it go back on??? I guess I should have paid better attention when I pulled it off. Does anyone have a pic of it in place, so I can see how I re-install it.

Thanks

Alex

I don't know if this helps either.There is a groove in the center section that has 2 flat spot,where you twist it on to the t.r. bracket.The clip slide right up against the brace.My explaination probably isn't any clearer than my pics?

Ok...got it figured. These springy clips basically sprung themselves when I took them off. So with a vise and some pliers I closed up the spring clip up again, they now will work again. Thanks for the pics, problem solved! :metal:
