Default SRAD calipers pad spring

Do you really need it? Is it just an anti-squeal spring or does it serve a more important purpose?

Reason being the little allen bolts that hold one of mine in place have corroded their heads out, and I need the spring out of the way to service the caliper.

Well they're all cleaned up and back together, they look a little ratty, but everything moves when it should.
