About this deal

Typical brake spring pliers have an open hooked jaw for working on the bottom springs. The other jaw is bent so that you can use it as leverage when pulling the bottom spring to hook or unhook it from the brake shoe.

Once the slot on the plate and the pin align, stop compressing the spring spring so that it pops off from the pin to release the brake shoe.
