an '88 should be the "late" type.. ie after 86..

Prob GSF is as good as anywhere for the discs and pads, but have heard the wheel bearing kits are now crap....

Or poss all available from brakes international...

Looks like you have a branch of 'Partco' in your area, I'd be giving these guys a ring and don't forget to ask for any club discount, usually 10% or so .

PS, if you don't ask you don't get.....

I got the lot from GSF with the Club 80-90 discount it was around the £90 mark, the problems I had in the past with there bearings was someone had fitted the old stub axel wrong size.
