If you buy a hardware kit they include the anchor pin locks you picture (some replace with e-clips), the springs, rubber to cover the adjuster holes, and the adjuster sprockets, so it is odd that that stuff is not available.

Certainly parts will be lost, parts will wear out, parts will be needed.

Don't get me wrong stock, I'm not really complaining, but just pointing out that Bendix parts are still available, AFAIK. Also, I have what I need and will collect some spares also, not a huge deal, but the operation of the Bendix is still superior, and they're easier to adjust. Aside from that, I plan to use the Hucks.
