bonehead Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Hi everyone, I am after enough washers to re-build 2 sets of rear calipers. The actual part I am after is what's called a "belleville" washer, it is part of the hand-brake (e-brake) system in the rear caliper. When stacked over each other they work as spring. Someone at MMC was most likely smoking meth when they designed the rear calipers for this car because it is weird, painfully complex and disintegrates into dust with a little moisture exposure. The Mitsubishi part number is MB134689 and in the exploded diagrams it is also listed as part 52957C. I will attach an image showing this. Can anyone help me?

tux Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Not helpful, but you may be able to contact one of the manufactures of Belleville springs to purchase some. If you know the size you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonehead Posted May 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Yeah, I have contacted a few fastener suppliers.. The thing is the actual Mitsy washer is M12 x 28 x 0.75 which is very specific, the closest I have found is M12.2 x 28 x 1 which may not really work.. I'll get a few and try them, but I'm not optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tux Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 A quick Google shows some suppliers "build to order" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
