Dana 60 brake caliper questions

I have an 89 v3500 dually. The front 60 doesn't have the normal slide bolts for the calipers. It has a Allen head bolt on the lower rear of the calipers almost at the 5 o'clock position.

I have done searching and everyone says to remove that Allen head bolt and beat on the locating wedges/spring inside to knock it loose then it slides off.

My question is what about reinstalling. Do these springs/wedges stay inside the caliper? Or fall out? Once the bolts removed and this spring/wedge is loose does the caliper just slide off like normal?

Before I tackle this today and screw something up I need some more clarification incase something goes wrongs I can get to the parts store before they close.

Thanks everyone
