Anyone else had trouble buying bloody rear brake discs?

I have now bought 2 sets of discs for a 1994 1.8 16v Non ABS and neither ****ing set of discs fit.

Heres the Disc

Back of disc (Which I dont think is deep enough)

You can see where its hitting here

Dont look like I have ABS then

 

[Smokey]

Up as im going to try to buy another set of discs in a cpl of hours

 

[jimmyt16v]

i got sum from h a e motor parts but i think thats a local thing to me? tried halfords?

 

[Daz]

Goto Renault!

Best bet, as you'll get the right ones and a new bearing's already pressed in!

 

[Smokey]

Well, got some ABS ones and guess what?

They dont f**king fit.
Im gonna cry if I dont get them sorted soon.

On the plus side, My williams calipers and discs have turned up for the RT

 

[BenR]

you got your old discs to compare to?

 

[Smokey]

No mate, i wish I did.

They were binned ages ago when I stripped the brakes down for refurbing and painting

I honestly didnt think it would be this hard.

Any ideas anyone?

 

[northy]

what axle is on the rear mate ?

is it a williams or a valver or something else ?

 

[Smokey]

Its a Valver rear axle as far as I know mate, I have'nt changed it since I have had it.

Its annoying because this is the only thing holding me up getting it back on the road.

[Red Valver]

could the previous owner have put different rears on like a R5 ???

 

[moggs]

I'm in the middle of replacing one side of mine cos the disc had cracked. Discs look right from the pics but the axle looks different to mine.(valver)

Can try to take a pic if you want but can't put them on the site at the mo. coul email em?

 

[moggs]

just been out to look. Can you put a pic up of the axle with no disc.

 

[Smokey]

Not sure to be honest Red Valver.....Maybe

I will get you a pic when I get home Moggs as I dont think I have any here at work.

Cheers thou fella, your a star
