Hey all,

Actually might be working on my lude...

Anyone have to hand access to a rear caliper?

I need to find the size of the clevis pin that connects the handbrake cable to the rear caliper. I was about to order just the R clip / Snap pin bit and found a supplier on ebay who do the complete replacements in various sizes in stainless. The old one looks a bit past it now. I had break the snap pin as that had rusted through.

Looks like this if you’re wondering:

Anyone help me out, so I can order before tonights post? Save me checking over the weekend?

I need the length (overall) and diameter.

Cheers,

Rob

The OEM R-clips are stainless already I believe?

I have a couple of these on the shelf, but no access to them till the weekend I'm afraid!

Tell that to my decomposed OEM clips!

No worries bud. Looks like I'll order them over the weekend.

Maybe someone had previously replaced your oem ones with...

non oem clips!

Once you order some, any chance on getting the link? As I need to do my cables soon so would replace these at the same time

Total length from end to end = 18mm (The head is 1.5mm)
Diameter of the body is 5.5mm (Head diameter is 8mm)

These aren't precise measurements as I don't have engineer's tools.
I hope it's close enough for you though.

@Pushki

Spotted this on Saturday, thanks a lot bud.

Took the plunge on a size closest to your measurements. I'll see if they're any good first and then post up the link.

Thanks,

Rob
