how did u stop it knocking mate?

yea i assume its the exhaust knocking,but i cant flipping stop it lol

its done!!!!!!! after 45 mins with the air gun its done! but in the wet if u get over rough ground or get wheelspin it still bloody knocks!!!!!!!!!!!

oh FFS!!! did the top bolt just undo ok? did the mount move round as ur undooing the top bolt?

i would think as long as ur polite mate they should be ok front pads are easy

few days ago,looked exactly the same as mine! 1st other blackl one iv seen ! had a young girl driving,i think on a w plate?

i cant because there is no room undeneath to hold the nut matey,there is barely enough room to get the spanner on the bottom nut,so if u did get the bottom nut off,u cant get ur fingers in to put the nut back onto the bottom of the stud im taking a battery powered zip gun home tonight so...

check ur rear brakes mate,i thought i had a problem witrh my front brakes on my old clio and it was one of the rear pads had fallen out

lol only jokin matey ;) yes the bottom nut will come off but u wont get it bk on,there is just enough space to get an open ended spanner on it,oh word of warning u will need an open ended 18mm spanner to do the bottom nut and a 18mm socket to grip the top the guys at work suggest using a zip...

good ideas guys but u cant put another nut on the bottom of the stud,iv tried gripping the stud but it looks like it will damage the threads? any of the pro's have an idea?

u can get a spanner on the bottom,but as soon as pressure is applied on the nut on top,the nut on the bottom undoes again?! i cant stop the bolt itself from moving

prob is mate there isnt a bolt head! its a bolt with a nut on either end? u can see what i mean in this pic the bolt is number 2

right iv figured out the bolt has a nut top and bottom,so when i hold the top nut,the bottom one undoes,but when i hold the bottom one the top one wont undoo,it just makes the bottom nut move! how do i hold the bolt still to undoo the top nut??

tried both mate,iv read posts saying its really easy,but iv tried finding the botom of the bolt that runs through the mount,but if i hold it it doesnt make any difference?! iv got my car in bits so pls some1 help!

im doing this now as in the sticky thread at the top,but i cant get the big middle bolt undone! the mount just turns with it?

cheers mate :) not bad for a cheapy lol just need to get some better tyres grrrr
