Guide pin anti-rattle clip for PBR calipers.

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone. 

 

I'm wondering if anyone can please help me with sourcing a "guide pin anti-rattle clip" for my original PBR calipers on my XC... 

 

One of them was snapped in half when I removed the calipers, so I don't know when it happened, or where the other half of the clip could possibly be. 

 

The brake shop I deal with (who are actually fantastic) said that they can't help at all, and they can't even source them aftermarket, because they aren't being made any more... 

 

I'll even consider buying an entire caliper if needed... 

 

Need one of these...

 

I've seen this listing on Ebay listed for a Holden PBR caliper, but it looks very similar to the one that I need. 

 

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/HOLDEN-HQ-Front-PBR-CAST-CALIPER-ANTI-RATTLE-SPRING-CLIP-FULL-SET-NOS-/361481033718?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286

 

Is it possible that it might be the same part? 

 

Any advice or assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

that ebay link (for Sunbury brakes) is a good seller generally(he did stuff up with a members master cylinder once and was rude about it, saying that's what your ordered.. your fault etc) however i've ordered clutches and brake parts from him before.

 

i'd use the "ask seller a question" and see if he can confirm it's the same as the ford one..

 

otherwise the only wrecker i'd know would have one (either a complete caliper or just the parts) would be LUKE GT in Melbourne https://www.facebook.com/groups/539507089467774/

Thank you so much. 

 

I've sent him a message. Hopefully they're a match. If not, I'll definitely get onto Luke. 

 

I'll follow his page right now... 

 

Greatly appreciate your help... 😊🙏
