which bushes?

Post by Smosh »

Sorry If this is in the wrong place...

Apparently my brakes have worn down from 13mm to 7mm Time for a new set of discs I think!

But I just want to check that I need to do bearings at the same time?

Also my antiroll bar bushes are apparently fooked. I cant find this part though! what is it that i need?

Thanks! :ok

I found it easier to change the inner bearing and fit them to the new disc.
removing the old bearing without damage was a little tricky and a bit of a faff

Wouldnt you do both bearings(inner and outer and the same time)?
