Have you tried rimmer bros, or britpart they usually have online catalogues of such

+1, bought some locking washers for my prop a few months back and I remember they also sold the horshoe shaped washers, can't remember the firm I bought them from though, sorry.

The rear brakes I would strip down and put copper slip grease on all the places where the brake shoes touch the back plates and check the edge of the material if it's squared off file it to a 45 degree angle

If the shoes are britpart ones then I am not sure if copper slip will cure it. Mine squeal like a stuck pig. I am going to replace mine with some better quality ones soon.

You should give the braking surface a rub with some emery cloth to take the shine off cloud also help but I would use britpart for brakes buy decent make some thing like mintex you only get what you pay for
