Torque settings when changing front disks and pads?

[cliobritt]

Any ideas?

 

[172cupwizard]

Tight as fook lol

 

[cliobritt]

lol

 

[Stava]

just make sure they are nipped up good pal, no need to torque them up.

 

[The Boosh!]

Anyone know where you can get the torque settings for stuff like this?

 

[iimushroomzii]

Just do everything up till its tight.

 

[caister]

Just use common sense really. They obviously need to be reasonably tight so they dont come undone but at the same time you dont need to be hanging off of a 6ft bar to do them up!!

There's nothing really to torque up, lol! :S

The discs are on locators that's all as they are held in place by the wheel bolts ultimately and the pads are changed by slackening the carrier off.

They need to be FT...

You could probably find the torque settings off autodata if you had access to it.

 

[172cupwizard]

Yeah and dont tighten the little star nuts up too much on the disc as they round off easy!

 

[Alastair.]

torque setting is FT

There is the caliper bolts, you'll find it hard getting the disc off with taking them out.

Either way, four white knuckles should do it.

oh my god! tryinh to take the calliper bit that fits onto the hub, its nails to get off!!

 

[Fred@BTM]

man up!

 

[cliobritt]

LOSER! seriously though!!

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah they're a bugger, turning the hub makes it much easier (obvious)

 

[cliobritt]

ring spanner just rounding off now. cant get socket on the top one.

 

[Fred@BTM]

you need an extrension mate, or a deep 18mm

 

[cliobritt]

[MarcoB]
