Title: Spring clip rear caliper
Post by: gbh on 23 April 2020, 23:54:13

Coming to all our cars I'm sure but my spring clip has just broke on the rivet and wondering if anyone has one to spare

I did my rear pads last week and one clip snapped and the other flew down the drain..

And how did you overcome the problem?

I haven't sorted it unfortunately. and the pins are getting rather thin in places too so I'm probably pushing my luck a bit and having the pads disappear one onto the road somewhere soon.

Seem to be a lot easier to get and even I have set Gm but of course they don't fit but the pads they came with were handy.Seen GM discs on the bay for £30 which seemed very good
