I can't seem to set these up properly. It's an Avid SD-1.9L. The spring won't reach the hole so there's no tension. I've cleaned it all up thoroughly but the part of the spring that protrudes us really short, despite the spring appearing to be exactly where it's meant to be. Not only is the protruding part short but the caliper doesn't quite meet the end of the braze on bit so there's a gap. I'm at a loss to see how to make it work. Pics to follow in a minute.
The spring in the bottom picture is slightly out of place but that's not the problem - it happens when it's all correct too.
These brakes came on this bike and worked, and they are original so it must be something I'm doing wrong
