AltiSR Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Tried hammering, pushing the disk out with bolts, sprayed about half a can of wd40 on it but it just won’t budge any advice would be appreciated. Brakes are on a 91 thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AltiSR Posted April 14, 2018 Author Share Posted April 14, 2018 Just realised what I was doing wrong . So when I get new rear disk brakes will I need to replace the bearings as well? Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 I would while its off it makes sense. you don't have to just check for wear. just remember not to over tighten when you refit or you will destroy the bearings. cheers nick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adzy Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 You can re use the bearings but when you there you might as well replace them. Same bearings as n/a starlet so cheap enough from motorfactors. Think I paid £13 a side for them Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tom Selby Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Ill be putting new brakes on each corner on mine soon, does anyone know the torque settings for the rears as they have the bearings ? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
00joeindastarb0 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 No torque setting, you need to do it by feel, tighten it up then back it of a bit so it doesn't drag. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
