VTISpain Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I have mounted a set of rear brake pads to my MB6 but when I have finished, I see that I have installed with the indicators on up instead down. Any problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simpo Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Do you mean the metal bit on the pad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTISpain Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Yes, the piece of metal that makes noise when the pad is worn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 So you have put them on the wrong side then. Dunno if it will effect it in any way why don't you just swop them round shouldnt take long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTISpain Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Because I have to take off the hand brake cable and I need a friend to put it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpo Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Why do you need to take the handbrake cable off to change pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knight Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 when i change my pads you don't have to touch the cable only if your changing the hub! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTISpain Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Yes but with the brake line i can't extract the bolt, and with a screw wrench I break the bolt head, It's so strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 OFF TOPIC - the rear pads should slide in not be pushed in .. if you push them into place they will bind/stickclean off the rust/grit/dirt ect. tell they are loosely fitting and free to move =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
