Expert Reply:
It sounds like you are talking about the parts that hold the brake shoes down. These parts include hold down springs that have little caps on them through which the hold down pins are inserted.
We have kit # AKBRKR-SHD which will work with AxleTek, Dexter, Lippert (LCI), IAC, and AL-KO 10 or 12 inch brakes with shoed widths of 2 inches or 2-1/4 inches.
If you have different size brakes or you are talking about different parts let me know.
