i can. i'll take a picture of it to make it sure it's the right one. if it's the part i expect, then it's a very tiny part and fits in an envelope and will be cheap to ship.

yea it looks like a nail. how much do you want for it? and how would i get money to you, i don't have net banking or a credit card or check book.. there isn't anything that you want form australia? like a kangroo

hmmm :) i'll think about it maybe something unique to australia.

I'll be home in 2 days, so I'll get you a picture of the part.

ill see if i can find one for you

Akinaspeedstar-
Here is the part you are looking for. One image has dimensions(if you need to fabricate. Online parts stores have them like http://www.rockauto.com/

I don't have any laying around, but some one on your side of the pond must have them.

thanks LONGBROW, but that site didn't work. thanks for the pic though. do you need the little split pins?? i may have to just buy some of those, because none of the pins had any.

Your local auto parts store should be able to get these parts -- it's called a "brake hardware kit". Or just get it from the wreckers, all the B110, B210 and B310 used these.

You don't need the split pins, you can use ordinary cotter pins. I even used a paper clip for years, didn't have a problem.

so what is the technical name for it, iv'e just been calling is a pin but what would you call it if someone was to look it up on a parts system? im still not 100% shore where to shop for one in australia, maybe some where like supercheap, repco or rare spears might be able to get one in but only in a pare, with all this other #### that i don't need or afford. the local wreckers where i brought the struts from in the first place didn't have any, i even went around the yard with the bloke and we couldn't find one. so my search continues, its just a small little thing that is holding me back its sooo frustrating!!

Please post up a picture of the caliper you have
And a picture of the sample pin you have

I'll have a look around
