Brake Pad Clip?? Hey all you brake experts out there, the clip that holds the pad in the bracket is rubbing my caliper for whatever reason 
, my question is can i remove those two clips and be cool? The fit doesn't seem that different with them in or out. TIA

Re: Brake Pad Clip?? No, those "clips" (the brass looking, smooth metal guys the fit into the tops and bottom of the abutment bracket) are needed to give your brake pads a smooth path on which to move.
Try swapping the to ends or the sides ...

Re: Brake Pad Clip?? good rule of thumb with brakes: NEVER leave off stuff the factory put on. its there for a reason, even though it might not be apparent to you.
