very uneven brake pad wear

I posted last weekend but will start new thread with more info. '95 900 2.3 auto, 106,000 mi. front left brake pads are wearing unevenly. i.e., the pads have become wedge-shaped. one has worn more at the "top" (outside of rotor), the other at the "bottom" (inside of rotor). it is quite pronounced, after about 10,000 miles. when I was taking the rotor off the left side, I noticed the clamp that the two caliper bolts go thru is not there (missing) on that side. perhaps the absence of this clamp is letting the caliper twist a bit, causing the uneven wear. I will try to find the clamp from a TSN sponmsor, but am I missing any more obvious causes, other than emsuring the posts slide freely etc? I saw this same issue posted in '03 but no one responded.
