Changing rear brake pads.

Post by KiwiDave »

Could someone post a pic or diagram of where the groove is on the rear caliper piston? This groove needs to line up with the caliper cut outs when wound back in. I can't see any kind of groove on mine and the pic in the haynes manual is useless! There's plenty of meat left on the pads but they have broken edges and look quite old. Time for some new pads now.

Thanks for that Ian.... another little question. The two little screws that fix the rear disc to the hub, where would I pick up some of those? A couple are now classified as FUBAR.
