[DeTomaso] Hi its Jay Leone

[Asa Jay Laughton]

You mean "pinned."  The rear pads must have a PIN welded to one each per
side, so it disallows the slot in the caliper piston from moving. 
You'll need to grind the pin down so you don't punch a hole in the piston.

See the last four photos on this page:
