Question about rear brake pads - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #78228 5 posts Started by conus00
Can somebody tell me how the outside pad is supposed to be sloted?
I can't remember if the brass thingie on the pad is supposed to be like this or mirrored?



Or does it actually matter?

Thanks!

Its the same as the inside pad.

Inside pad does not have it, only outsides. Anybody?

Theoretically both sides should have the tab. But I've also had it where only one has the mounted tab. Put the tabbed one on the outside and the regular one against the piston. Honestly it doesn't really matter. Its all about ease of fitment for install. Hope that helps

That's what I thought: the inside ones (against piston) had no tabs at all and the outside ones had only one tab...
