Hey guys I did my rear brakes last night (new wheel cylinders and shoes) and I managed to break one of the pins that holds the small metal clip onto the shoe so it stays pressed against the backing plate...where can I get a new one from?
Does anyone have the suzuki part number? Ill go and get one from them today if I can get it
Thanks

take a good one and the springy clip thing to a DECENT brake shop and they should be able to sort you out with 4 new ones for bugger all, they are a generic replacement part

Try Power Brakes, MR1JZ-no more...
They've moved from the Parade & they're now on North East Road near the Holden Hill Cop Shop or try Suzuki in da City.

I bent a nail to hold it in place, until I found what I needed.

I found my replacement part on a suzuki carry at the wreckers. So pulled both the pins and spring clips while I was there.
You might find that those pieces on most drum brake shoes would fit.
