So I was refurbing the rear brake calipers and one of the long pins that holds the brake pads in place in the caliper was broken off right at the hole for the retaining spring.

I went to autozone and got the "pig in space" look from the employee!

Parts manual shows the PN as 928 352 953 00. Are these pins hard to source? Any alternates / work arounds?

Please don't tell me those pins are unique to 928's and NLA
Thanks

There's a kit for these with two pins and the rattle spring. Same calipers are on the rears of 944s through 88 or 90. Maybe use an '87 944 as a search mule. I picked up a couple kits off eBay. Keep looking!

Here's one:

Ouch is right. I can't be the first person to have this issue. Hopefully someone has an idea

I had a local machinist make me 8 out of stainless for a hundred bucks. they never seized in the caliper after that.

They are available and about $4 each. 928 351 936 00.
I can check in the morning if they are local or out of Germany. Worst case 48 hours.

Roger I show that as a front not a rear. Will it still work? I do have one on stock.

Based on the kit Glen came up with it seems it will work.
