with this tool....doing rear brakes on a 10.25 can actually be "easy"

[Thewespaul]

I’ve got a collection of homemade tools in my box in the shop they make a lot of obscure jobs easier but osha sure doesn’t approve

I don't have the special tool, but have a pair of vise-grips with which I grasp the end of the heavy coil spring, then use my other hand to hook the nail over the end. Still have all my knuckles.

We bought this one from kd tools years ago at a swap meet. One of the best buys ever! Works super slick. KD Tools 3499
