Advanced Suspension, Chassis, and Braking Talk about suspension geometry, advanced handling/chassis setup, custom brakes, etc. NOT your basic brake pads and "best drop" Information.

How often do you guys replace the spring pins that touch the pads?

The haynes manual says they should be replaced everytime you change your pads. I just noticed 2 of mine were stuck while I was doing my brakes today.
I don't think they have ever been changed since I got the car!

Replaced them at around 80K. I'd replace them when they lose their tension. Other's will say to leave them off completely.
