Rear caliper update

I'm guessing some of you wonder how my caliper went together. Well, I
came up with a clever way to compress the spring.

I got an old caliper from the junkyard (it too had a stuck parking brake
lever, so it was free), got the piston out of there, and took out the
inner part of the piston. I cut this piece in half, and with a nut in
between (acting as a spacer) I just screwed it onto the threaded rod and
installed the circlip like the spring was never there! Easy as spelling
your own name :-)
