AGA Tools Aluminum Parking Brake Clip Review
Hi guys, I thought I would provide a brief review of the AGA tools aluminum parking brake clip. I didn't see any posts about the part, so I thought I would share. I am not sponsored in any way by AGA tools.
Couple days after my coilover install, I heard a metal grinding noise coming from the passenger rear wheel area. At first, I thought it was some pebbles or debris that got stuck behind the dust shields, but it turned out to be the broken parking brake clip. I did some search and came across this aluminum billet solution from AGA tools. Although a bit pricey, it seems to be a good, permanent solution compared to the plastic OEM piece that might fail again. Local shop charged 1 hour labor, as the piece is a slip on (then bolted), rather than being layered on top of other panels that share the bolt, thus not needing to lower the gas tank. Highly recommendended! This is the correct orientation for the bottom piece. Otherwise it will not sit flush with the top piece. Last edited by hoonywise; 11-13-2021 at 06:28 PM.. |

I don't see on your site when searching for AGA that you sell this part

Going to get this done as well when I take my car in to swap my dp. It's been annoying me since I put my Axel back at it basically fumbled the clip off XD

Thanks for this review, especially that the tank doesn’t need dropping. Need to buy it and quit ziptieing every month or two.

Thanks! Mine started making noise two months ago at 80,000, so, guess I'm lucky to go that long on the original "planned obsolesce" part... Local dealer quoted $530 for replace while there for another issue... I'll have my local mechanic tackle this!!!
