if the disks havent been off in a while, be warned! they might be a tad tricky! in thearoy you just undo a couple of screws and off it comes. in reality the screws will probably be tight and the disk rusted to the hub. i would suggest using an impact driver on the disk screws, with a proper size phillips bit before even attempting a normal screwdriver. then youll more than likely have to bash the crap out of the disk with a big hammer to get it off! make sure the hub face is clean and put a smear of copper grease on it before putting the new disk on. same with the disk screws. a pad and disk swap should be easy to do in under an hour, just depends how stuck things are! use a proper 6 sided 12mm socket on the slide bolts too as theyre quite easy to round off. remove the brake resevoir cap before trying to push the pistons back in. makes it a lot easier! bedding in, most pads will come with an advice leaflet. usually just gradually increase the braking pressure, but dont brake for long periods. a few miles is usually enough to get them working properly assuming its not going to get any abuse |
