they arrived a couple of days ago, but didnt have time to fit them until yesterday.
it wasnt a straight forward swop though, as i had a snapped bolt stuck in the hub, therefore had to take the hub off and drill the bolt out with the miller and re-thread the hole.




in the process of taking everything apart i split the bearing.

so had to walk down to the motorfactors and pick up a new one.
got the bolt out, re-threaded the hole, built everything back up and now they are fitted.

need to repaint my brakes now though.

Cheers Jambo, what do you do as a job then?
I'm in the process of doin the workshop up a bit now, kitting it up with more tools etc.
TBH i was shitting myself when it came to drilling the bolt out and re-threading it, just made sure i took it nice and slow.
