First check the brass clip fits in the opening. You hay find that you will need to file some of the sides to help it fit. Second Liquid soap on rubber helps them slid into place.

Re: Early brakes questions!!

On the early 28's the dogbone has two small springs that fit on the ends. This helps to maintain tension when it is assembled. if you search really hard you will find reference to these.
