Grant Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 Well I finally finished at 1 am!!! Lol. Am out and about right now so will upload photos when in back on wifi. Hour and a half to put all carriers, pads and calipers back on this morning pretty good going I reckon!Also spent a little while re greasing the rear sliders and adjusting the pad fitment. Seems completely bizarre to me why people put them in so tight that they cannot slide. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 So! Don't have many before pics, don't need to really, I think they are all now lookin a little tired! But here are the pics. Not a completely proper job, would've liked more time to take the rear calipers apart and inspect and then paint. But this close to the meet this evening and fest next weekend I didn't dare. Everything went really well, better than I could've hoped, not seized/snapped bolts. Pads all round are in good order, there's still a little life in the front discs, but rears will need to be done reasonably soon. Anyway, here go, excuse the dirty wheels, I'm cleaning this arvo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
