I have a 1989 288xp with a metal brake flag. Turns out these brake bands are prone to breaking and hard to come by. Anyone know where I can find a replacement? Doesn't seem to be a oem option anymore, aftermarket is fine if it's high quality.

Thanks

I am new to the page, and tried search. Nothing came up. So if I failed to do it correctly, and this is a duplicate post, I'm sorry. Please point me in the correct direction .

I don't think there's an aftermarket option. Watch ebay - parts for those and complete brake assemblies pop up from time to time.

I was under the impression there was an aftermarket option. Maybe I saw it on AS?

I have a few i could part with. The issue is that a few folks said they are too long. But i have used them in my 181, 266, and 162SEs. So i don't know why they wouldn't work. Risk vs reward.. I don't want it back if it does not work on your cover. Something must have been differ ent on some covers even though they are the same part number?

Ok so I got the band in the mail yesterday from @Romad10. It looks nice. I had a chance to install in today before work. I haven't had a chance to check function on saw. I will update when I get a chance to try it.
