Wanted rear brake pad shims
« on: 02 March 2015, 07:27:00 am »
Just reading my Haynes manual with regards to my rear calliper and it shows shims on the back of the pads, these were not present when I took the pads off.  Does anyone have a "spare" set  I could have?

I also have one missing and the new pads I bought last month didn't come with shims and aj Sutton don't seem to list them either. Oh and no sorry I don't have any.
