Changed the front pads yesterday and noticed that the retaining pin on the front right caliper is AWOL! Where did it go? Who knows. Where can i find a replacement without buying a new caliper...I was hoping yall could help me out with that Haha.

rockauto.com you can buy these lil brake kits that come with new rataining clips for the calipers and new rubber for the bleeders

junkyard is worth a shot as well.

at least you can repaint them while it is off!

I was going to repaint, but I think I will wait until spring when the weather isn't so cool.

No go on the junk yard. Went there a couple days ago trolling for SVT parts hahaha. Was going to look for it on some of the part out listings, but $6 for new hardware is fine by me. Thanks guys and mod for moving to correct section...WHAT WAS I THINKING!?!

@ norcalfocus... Kitkat? Now I'm hungry...time to raise the kids Halloween stash hahaha


Oh hahaja I get it now...give me a break! Oh lord.

People might flame me but I have around 1200 race miles on my SVT conversion with red stuff pads and no retaining clip.

I just don't feel safe w/o it...I mean they put it on there for a reason...right? Lol. Plus I felt how much movement the caliper had w/o it. The hardware should be here on Monday...then I can I can break-in my new brake pads

 

[felixthecat]

Parts from Rock Auto showed up in the mail today. Needless to say I finished the job and test drove. Love the EBC pads btw. Squeaky little bastards if I am braking softly.
