I'm trying to fing out how many anti-rattle clips are on each LS1 caliper. I am finishing up the LS1 front brake swap, and don't know if i have lost any clips or not. I have 2 per caliper. One goes on the end of the pad in the abutment bracket, and the other in the caliper itself. I'm wondering if i have lost 2 clips. Should there be one in each end of the abutment bracket and one in the caliper, for a total of 3 per side? If not, does the single one in the abutment bracket go on the bracket towards the front of the vehicle or the rear of the vehicle? Any help greatly appreciated.

 

There should be a total of 3 per side: 2 in the abutment for the brake pads and one in the center of the caliper. If you need new ones, Auto Aone carries a hardware kit, P/N H5926, $12, and it has all new rattle clips and rubber boots for the guide pins.

ebmiller88,

Thanks!! It guess i lost two of the clips. Looks like I'll be heading to AutoZone tomorrow. Once again, thanks!!

 

would this be the same for the front c5 calipers? does any one know the part # for the rear c5/ls1 brake pad abutment shims and anti rattle clip?

 

Same number of clips (3) but they are different for C5 calipers, they WILL NOT interchange. hey are also different front and rear. They look very close but they won't work right. You can also get C5 hardware kits but I don't know the P/N off the top of my head. I have an extra set of used rear clips I'll throw in with your plates and rotors, shipping on Tuesday.

C5s? Yes, I'll throw those in too.
