I've been trying to source HJ Statesman rear drum brake pistons (or push-rods) - the short rod that goes between the wheel cylinder and the brake shoe. Rare Spares do not sell them, nor do ABS. I can get around it, but I find it suprising they cannot be purchased new. Are they common to later model Holdens?

Thanks

What's wrong with your old ones ?

In 45 years working on Holdens (38 of those professionally) I've never needed to replace those push rods. If yours are lost, broken or too rusty, 2nd hand ones should be plentiful.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0
