Need new rear brake back plates
Hi all, on brickwerks web site are out of stock of the rear brake back plate both sides do you now where the best place to get them from? Also going to replace the whole rear setup as the handbrake cable not to good either so might as well replace everything while i have the wheels off. This was all mention on the service report i had done last week. Just checked VW Heritage they are also out of stock

Have you e-mailed Brickwerks to ask when they will be back in stock? Send them a message and they will give you an answer either tomorrow or Tuesday.

If your stuck for back plates and have access to a welder you can use bay back plates. You will need to drill a couple of holes for inspection of the pads, also make or reuse the little bracket for the top shoe springs, this would need a couple of tacks. Everything else is the same.
