Make sure you tension the retaining clips properly. A few of us made the mistake of not tensioning it over the bracket the caliper floats on. The result is the caliper will twist during braking and you have really deep pedal travel that most people wrongly diagnose as needing to bleed the brakes.

A dumb mistake I know but I've done it and seen a few others on these forums :)
