Back inna day Shimano sold a replacement bushing kit for these & the XTR brakes. Either one worked on both & I even worked in shops that had these kits in stock but they didn't sell because the brakes worked so good that they never wore out until the last 5-10 years & by then you can never find the kits cause shops either binned them or donated them to community shops. I dunno where they all went. I has a pair of the XTR brakes with worn out bushings & kept holding onto em' thinking I'd come across the kits but I ended up giving them away to a staff member. But FYI a zip tie around the parallelogram/slash bar thingy keeps them quiet but look fugly!

As nice as those brakes are... They rattled like an old woman's false teeth..... Had to much play in them.

ugh, why repaint the original frame, such an overrestoring thing to do
Old paint was suspect!
