Re: Rear disc + pad change – any gotchas?
Thanks for the advice.
Just got some Pagid discs + pads for £63 from ECP.
Still slighlty concerned about using a lump hammer to get the old discs off - how much welly before the wheel bearings quit
MOT on Tuesday so will be out in the rain/snow this weekend
