B'stard of a day

Post by JC »

SImple task...or so you may think...replacing the wheelstuds on the front....

Brake disk is stuck solid to the hub (which is also the wheel bearing assy)

Tried heat, some 'persuasion' there's nothing to pull against if I take out the complete hub and disk.... I might just be forced to beat the disk so hard it scraps it :? :(

Anyway... Good job I have a new hub and bearing assembly to go on...this one is now mullered to within an inch of its life....

Note to self...always use copper slip when installing brake disks.... now might be a good time to install the Mk2 brakes 315mm as opposed to the 297mm I have currently.

Ah well...tomorrow is another day :?
