Hi can anyone direct me to a supplier for replacement or refurbishment of my rear brake calipers.
The adjusters for the hand brake attachment on the inside of my rear calipers has failed and I can’t find replacement calipers to get it through the next MOT.

Handbrakes on troopers are shoes that sit inside the disks, not caliper type handbrakes.

Thanks Malcolm but the adjusting springs have failed on the rear of my disc brake calliper's and the local garage suggest replacing the whole caliper as the quickest fix.But it’s not easy to find replacements any ideas?.

I have no idea what they mean by adjusting springs on a calliper.
Do you trust them. Sounds like they are after ripping you off.
