when your putting it on push the spring up toward where the griptape on your deck is, like dialgonally. idk if that really explains anything but try to understand what im saying and also try a few ideas of your own. its not that hard and usually takes me less than a minute to change a brake if you push the spring.

i was just stuck here for about ummm 45minutes trying to change the spring on my brake. omg its so annoying coz it wouldnt get throught the spring hole and then line up with the hole!

maybe coz im a noob and had the spring roudn the other way but y'know dont tell anyone :)

i usually just use a alen rench to get the bolt state then have a freind hit the wrench with a hammer
