Most aftermarket replacement disc brake pads do not include the backing plates and springs. I have found a listing for the backing plates but can not find a part number for the front springs. The springs are included if you buy the Mazda factory replacement pads, but I don't want to buy a set of pads just to get the springs.

Does anyone have a parts number for *just* the front disc brake pad anti-rattle springs?

Have you tried calling Ray at Malloy Mazda?

According to the parts fiche springs and backing plates are only available with new brake pads.

MAZDA's parts catalogs don't list the springs as a seperate item (only included in the pad sets) But I have been able to get REAR springs as a seperate item through MARIAH, (I have the part # at home I can send you) But I don't know if they can get the fronts alone. Also maybe they would be available through MAZDA MOTORSPORTS

I've had a few fc and fds and most of the time the springs are missing and i've never had any problems without the springs. Toyota uses the same style springs on their cars and they discontinued using the springs.

Thanks for the replies. Parts listings for this type of parts can be strange. I ordered a new set of factory replacement front four-piston calipers for my GTUs and they came with a complete set of factory replacement pads - with springs and backing plates.
