Clip that holds on brake shoe

Post by jim lee »

Starting to reassemble our M37's brakes, I find that one of the clips to hold the brake shoe in place is broken off. How does one fix this? They are riveted on. Anyone solved this problem before?

Thanks!

I ordered a takeoff one from one of the usual vendors (can't remember who). I cut off the old rivets, and attached the replacement with some Allen head machine screws and locknuts.

There are repair kits for these-I think I got mine from VPW.
