Does anyone know the dimensions of the split pins that are in my 4 pot AP calipres holding in the pads? I don't want to take them out as I can't reuse them.

Why can't you reuse them, assuming they're not broken?

Bit concerned that the metal may get fatigued and weaken.

I guarantee they've been reused in every service the cars ever had. . Ooops got to take pills.

They're not under strain, or load bearing. Reuse them like everyone else does.

OK I get the hint, I'll reuse them then!

I forgot that Cerb owners are eco-friendly and like to recycle rather than pollute the atmosphere!
