Not much help on this end, Greg, but just wanted to say you have to have the award for longest membership without posting! 
You might try ~squeezing~ the cylinder in place with vise grips or a c-clamp to expose the recessed area for the clip.
Welcome!

Welcome- always glad to have another TR4 owner in here.
This came up recently and I didn't have a good link. Still don't have a perfect one, but take a look at this discussion:
Wheel Cylinder install
In the picture you will see three of the locking plate parts labeled A, B, C. The trick is to install A and B first, then drive in C in between the two installed parts. So that little clip labeled B is not the last piece to go in. No bending, once you get the hang of it you'll find it easy I think.
