Has anyone around Newcastle got 2 anti squeal springs for SW20 front brakes?
I finally got around to re-fitting my brakes, I was trying to put my pads in the most difficult way and managed to send one of the anti squeal springs flying across the back yard!
I searched for 15 minutes and couldn't find it, so I had the bright idea of compressing the other one and seeing where it landed... I lost that one too!
I did manage to get the other set in properly so I won't be making the same mistake again! :)
Thanks to anyone that can help me out!
 
Cheers.

Dammit, I've called Toyota and some local brake places, these ****s are hard to find!
Does anyone anywhere have 2 they can sell and express post to me?
 
Cheers!

The bits I'm after are the V shape bits in the bottom left of the B&W pic. 

They sit in the pads to force them apart. After finding this picture I now know the easy way to fit them...

All sorted thanks to mrmr2! Freaking legend!

I need one of these also. Where did you get yours from?

Quick point, they're not essential to use

In the past I've ordered them from Amayama, the last set I bought used from mrmr2 on the forums as I couldn't wait for shipping from Amayama.
Cheers.

thanks guys, I'll grab one from Josh. May not be essential but id prefer to have them all.

Sorry to laugh at your pain but this is hilarious. We've all been there before!

I did my brake pads just recently and when I was doing the rears, I could not for the life of me remember how the outer rear brake pads went in (the ones with the wear indicator) and compressed/sprung one right into my face. Then I had the bright idea of checking the other side to see how the pads went in (which I hadn't touched yet) and realised my mistake.. good times!
