Caliper question

Thats a great image and different from the one I had posted...!

So, still, now that I see how the rubber band goes, CA NOT figure out WHY they have it! LOL

Anyways, looks (so far) like the issue was CHEAP hardware that came with the pads.

The plates were very maleable. Very little pressure to bend them.

I went out and bought a new kit from NAPA and the plates are much harder and more like springs.

So far, so good....didnt try the REALLY bumpy roads yet but I think this definately helped.
