HELP!
OK. I let some shade tree mechanic change my brake pads as I was WAY to lazy to do it myself and he royally F!@#ed me. I keep hearing scraping on the driver rear wheel. So I take it to NAPA. The joker didn't replace the pin, and the pads are just sitting in position! So we're calling dealers for the pin and no one seems to have this. It doesn't even come with the caliper with hardware. Any ideas?

it comes with the repair kit.

if you have single pin....you get the pin and the big tab spring!

any MB parts guy should be able to find it. if not then he needs a new job!

@ 1995..
They are acting like they have no idea what I am asking for. Do I just ask for the.repair kit? Andorra is a single pin.

tell them you want the retaining hardware kit for the rear brake pads. you'll need your vin number so they can look for it easier.

Keep in mind you need the rear retaining pin and pad retaining spring. I just changed my pads and I know you can get these at the dealer for under 20 bucks for both sides.
