BTW, found some stainless springs that will do for the rear brake rod, saves them rusting in the future, I had mine chromed but of course they don't last that long and rust on the interior part of the coils.

You need the diameter of the wire, outside diameter of the spring and it has to be longer.  I mounted the caliper and then measured the distance and put on 5 to 10mm or more  ;)

Sesman:
Exactly my pal, thanks trigger :)

Sesman:
“Plan”, not “pal”. But happy to be your pal.
