bad inferno Member 130 Member For: 19y 6m 13d Posted 19/11/16 10:10 AM Author Share Posted 19/11/16 10:10 AM (edited) Did the rear brakes today... Took longer than I thought as I had trouble setting the handbrake. My adjuster on both sides were screwed all the way "in" and had jammed so I had to adjust it a few mm out once I freed it up. ended up taking it out and used some multigrips & pliers. FYI Rear brakes have HEAPs of clearance to the GT335 rim although I have the 9" staggered rears. So want to do the front brakes and before I take it apart was wondering if anybody knows how to tell the left & right brake hose apart. I suppose it will make sense when I take the wheel off and have a look however want to do whatever I can before I start. Any idea on left & right ?. there is obviously no reference to the part No on line.

You'll figure it out once you hold them next to the factory lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont trust the guys doing the bushes with the new calipers -although Im sounding paranoid now and there not even on ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bad inferno Member 130 Member For: 19y 6m 13d Posted 03/12/16 10:42 AM Author Share Posted 03/12/16 10:42 AM The only thing Im not happy about is my old DBA T3 rotors never showed any sign of rust where as these discs are showing a very fine rust ring closest to the hub (where the pads don't contact). Im going to be really pissed if they get progressively worse and have a rust ring where the disc joins the hub. It does simply wipe off now however dont wont to be doing that...

Wasn't thinking properly last night - I'm not sure what effect it may have on the pads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
