Long shot: HX-HZ PBR alloy caliper anti-rattle springs

[Harv]

This is a pretty long shot, but does anyone have four of the anti-rattle springs for HX-HZ alloy calipers?

There is one for sale on eBay... must be made of unobtainium:

If nobody has any, I'll see if I can hunt some down via Hoppers or Burt Bros.

Harv,

I'll take a look. If I have them, they'll come with two calipers at no added cost.

You score 50%.

I only kept the pads in one caliper, which means two anti-rattle springs. But you get two calipers as an added bonus.

Do you know a piano tuner? The springs are a very easy shape to bend up out of spring wire. We may even have some in the store at work.

Thanks Rob - appreciated.

Sadly, I know no piano tuners.

What's the difference between a piano and a tuna? You can tuna piano, but you cannot piano a tuna.


Nyuck nyuck nyuck.

Problem sorted, with thanks to Shaw Race Brakes. One pair of originals, and one pair of piano wire repros.

Four springs shown on one caliper for demonstration purposes only.

I’ve now also got some t’rahna calipers to play with. Will mock them up onto the disks once I sort out the steering arms (waiting on engineers response). Might give some more options for the next bloke.
