I was cleaning/changing pads on my BB7s. I took the inner piston out and can't figure out how to get back in. Doh! Help would be greatly appreciated.

Here are a couple of places with pictures that might help.

Yes the "Pressure Foot' (outboard pad) has a little circlip around the tip of it, under the ball bearing. The whole thing squeezes into the drive cam. Hope this helps, good luck! I've taken mine apart and cleaned it and re-greased it and did have a little of trouble putting that pad shaft into the drive cam.
