I recently heard grinding noises from my front brakes and went to replace my pads. when I pulled the wheel I noticed to my horror that the top pin had backed all the way out and the outer pad had dropped down on the rotor and was well into cutting my rotor off. I was lucky it was the top one and the brake line kept the pin from going all the way out. seems the retainer clip had fell off allowing the pin to back out. just wanted to give you guys a heads up in case you use these pins and hear grinding noises. I replaced them with new ,but this time I took some needle nose pliers and bent the straight side of the retainer to keep it from falling off.
