First things first as a tribute to Monkfish

Make a brew:)

Now jack up the car on the proper points and support the vehicle

Remove caliper and pad carrier

Remove disc

Admire the new disc

Now thoroughly clean with brake cleaner(posh cleaner courtesy of Kev)

You will notice the calipers come with the hose adapter already fitted. DO NOT try to tighten this further, it is a tapered thread and should be like that

Remove 3 torx screws holding on backplate

Time for another

Carefully cut and reamove back plate, SHARP!

Thoroughly clean stub axle, the discs are a snug fit and these do need to be clean

d13.jpg

Fit new disc

d14.jpg

Fit new bracket with loctite provided

d16.jpg

d15.jpg

Fit new pads to calipers, such a simple neat idea

d17.jpg

d18.jpg

Bolt caliper to bracket with loctite

d19.jpg

As we only did a dry fit as the car is off the road you will need to fit the hoses and bleed the system. Bleed using both TOP bleed nipples

Refit wheel stand back and admire the beauty

A job well done!!

mud and water and shit gets in anyway mate. yes, the backplate helps, but it wont make too much of a differnece. if he was rallying it, it'd be different, but its a road car, doubt itll see too much debris.

they look lush though, how much are they mr toothbrush?
