seventytwo Still have a turbo, it's just on a diesel. Lifetime Members 5,368 Member For: 19y 6m 8d Gender: Male Location: The 8th Dimension Posted 02/12/07 11:10 AM Share Posted 02/12/07 11:10 AM The rotor should be held to the hub by two large screws, if they have come lose the rotor would move around like that. But as everyone has said once the wheel is on and the nuts are done up properlythere should be no movement at all.But some how I think there may be a loose nut behind the steering wheel.

(forgive me brad, been to the pub!) wheels are on, nuts are tight, nuts hold wheel, wheels holds rotor, rotor holds... she'll be swoit as long as no movement when all is tight?

(anyone!?) are the screws a necessity brad? or will the wheel nuts be sufficient to hold the fort?or best to source some screws for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
