This problem cropped up recently just before my road trip so I just wired the shoes temporarily in place and avoided using the hand brake.
These are the retaining pins.
The problem is the slot hole on the brake shield/retainging plate has become enlarged so the pin can easily fall out.
Now I could use a longer bolt through the springs and put a nyloc on the back but the heat from the brakes will probably melt the nylon.
Any other suggestions other than replace the heat shields which is a total pita and are NLA would be much appreciated?
