    In process of rebuilding my rear brakes and found out I was missing the link spring. I got this rear and was bare of the springs. Where can I get this spring I am stuck till I get two of them.

    Re: Rear brake link spring

    Do you mean the oval or rectangular springs that go on the emergency brake strut?  All the other springs are available in a hardware kit at any auto parts store.  I might have some, but need to be sure we are talking about the same thing.  As many people as there are on this forum that have changed from drums to discs, somebody is bound to have some laying around.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    Yes that is the one I am needing. It is the oval spring that goes on the cross bar ( link) between the two shoes and connects one shoe and the parking brake lever.

    Re: Rear brake link spring

    where are you located?
    So, do you need one for each side?
    I've got some around here with some "patina" on them but they'll work fine....
