The spring that goes on the front brakes has fallen off both sides of my car.I have two new ones but I am not sure of their placement.Does anyone have a picture or a good description as to how it goes on.Thanks

Make sure they are SVT specific. I got some this weekend and cursed for about an hour to then realise that they were for a regular contour.

there are two different caliperso n the early SVT models. I believe its the latter version that is the same as the other contours.

Yeah I knew that when I went for rotors and pads.Mine is an early 99 build 99 model year and all the parts computers show up to april 99 having early pads.I found out after ordering the early pads that I have the later ones,So had to wait for those to be ordered.There is website somewhere I think maybe BATs site that shows the difference.Double check before you order.
