Discs are fairly straight forward. Loosen wheel nuts. Jack car up safely Remove wheel Undo 2 17mm bolts on back of the caliper carriers Knock caliper off of disc Knock disc off Clean hub of any debris, dirt and grime Put a small film of copper grease on hub face to stop disc rusting to it in future. Clean new discs with alcohol or degreaser. Fit disc If doing pads aswell you will want a G clamp to push the piston back in on the caliper then fit new pads. Then its just a case of reversing the above steps. If youre not sure have a mate who knows what he/shes doing to watch over and help out
They are fitted with before the stubaxle is pressed into the bearing stopping it from being removed but You can unbolt and cut through it or in most cases it will have rusted so much it can be pulled apart.
Printed my tickets earlier. Still got a day and a half at work then pack, buy supplies, turn my car into a bed and then drive up! Hoping for a late afternoon/early evening arrival, someone best have a cold beer or cider waiting for me 😉
What pads are they and how new? When i first got my ebc yellow stuffs i did about 500 miles easy driving and even after that i had huge fading issues to the point i almost didnt stop for a junction or 2. Turned out i still hadnt worn the bedding in material off.
This is what me and a mate came up with for his garage. These are old industrial air compressor pistons, large ones about 250-300mm diameter. He skimmed a tad off the conrod faces so they clamped to the bar and put grub screws in agaisnt the gudgeon pin to stop them rotating.
Hopefully the stock 180kph dials are still behind that. The convertor uses that but instead of it being kph it is actually mph. Some people stick a little M over the K on the kph text on the dial face 😉
