Re[3]: Need brake part

Jason is correct as I have bought disc pads for many years and the set 
never came with the mentioned springs.  I find this sorta weird since all 
the manuals I've read say to replace the springs when putting in new pads!  
The springs are spreader springs and aside from keeping the pads from 
rattling around they assist in keeping the pads away from the disc when you 
are not braking.

Jase- thanks for the store, part number and price -- good follow through!

     I just changed my pads about two months ago and they did not come with
     new springs.
        I just now got off of the phone with the Flaps.  I wanted to see if
     I got shorted those springs in my set of pads.  The guy there checked
     and none of his pad sets come with the springs.  He also checked to
     see if he could order any.   He couldn't even find a part number.
        So I called the local N.A.P.A store.  Their part number is
82-119 and
        they cost 5.98 for the set of four.  They are listed as anti-rattle

   clips.
