PBR Brakes
Need help in finding the part/'s which holds the brake pad in the caliper (anti rattle spring). Not sure if that's what it's called for the pbr brakes. I bought new brake pads and they didn't come with it and auto stores don't seem to carry it. A part number would be nice or at least to be pointed in the right direction. 
Thanks!
Thanks!

The new pads, or the ones I've dealt with, should have had those springs on them. My EBCs did. Like I said I have extras if you need some.

Well I checked at my local auto stores and asked them if they could check with all the different types of brands to see if any carried the clips and non did. Yes, Ed I would appreciate if you could send them to me. PM me with more info.

They come in the caliper hardware kits from NAPA. I had to buy the kits when I did my swap. It had the clips, the retainer pin and an e-clip.Brake Caliper Hardware Kit - Front Item#: UP 83014 Price: $8.49 . This is from the website, there is a picture there.

Will those clips fit the rear calipers? Because I need them for the rear brakes.

I thought you meant the fronts. I don't remember clips on the rear. Do you have pics?

That is what I thought. They fit in the carrier and the springs hold the caliper tight. I wasn't sure if he had something different.

Well I finally went to the dealer and they cant seem to find the spring part. But I did notice that I'm also missing a shim that's shaped like an H. Which comes with the stock brake pads that are $95.00
Well do any of you guys know where else I can find these parts?

The only brakes I can think of that use something similiar is the delco rear disks on pre-89 cars.
