rear brake discs help please

[byers]

took the 30m bolt of do they need a special tool to get the discs off or will they tap off with a hammer?? thanks

They just pull off dude... Could tap them if they are stuck just be careful you don't break it though

yeah should just tap off, rubber mallet mate. shouldn't need to give it much. keep the spacers though as new discs wont come with them.

thanks a lot !!!

if they don't pull off, the bearing has welded (rusted) itself to the stub axle, if you need to t**t it off, the bearing will fall apart as you do so, and part of the bearing will be stuck to the stub axle, get the grinder out!

been at it giving it some but it has only a bit of play have to keep at it till it comes off.. its drilled and groved noticable on the back or will standard discs do the job???

I had to really Belt mine with a Lead Hammer to get mine off.

If found 2 or 3 hits from the back of the disc away from the car followed by one massive hit on the face at the bottom of the disc did the trick.

Stick with standard mate. No point up rating the discs really. You could put better pads on rather than OE, but again it's probably not noticable

wouldn't bother drilled and grooved discs on the back tbh.... like above just some new or better pads would be good but it all depends how you drive etc etc
