    On huck brakes there are 5 pins that hold the shoes together. There's a center pivot pin that connect the two vee shaped bars together, then on either side of that are two pins, one large one & one small one, that connect to the shoes. Securing these pins are a round clip with kind of a half circle with a sq. cutout in the center and a small raised lip on the outside edge of the clip. Well these clips are somewhat mangled/deformed. My question is, can you or has anyone replaced these clips with regular E-clips? I can't find a source for the original type clips. Thanks.
