Checking my rear calipers I noticed the retaining pin spring clips (those little wires that hold the pins in) are missing. Dis a search and can't find any. Antone know if were I could purchase them.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) I made a set of clips to keep the pins in by using some thin stainless steel welding rod. I bent it in the shape of a U with one end long the other short and then holding onto the long end threaded the short end into and through the hole. I then used neadle nose pliers and clipped and bent the ends down against the pin and I know that pin will never move. As to when I need to replace those rear pads ( I should be about 85 years old then ) I will just clip the welding rod material, pull it out and repeat.
