Rear Disks and Pads

[bilton_d]

I have had a search but can't see anything .... has anyone changed their rear disks and pads?

Done several cars in the past but nothing with an inbuilt bearing ..... I assume once the pads and calipers are off undo the large retaining nut and the disk comes off in the normal way or is there anything special about removal and refitting?

Thanks

I would assume the same, since the bearing's inbuilt the whole unit must just slot off like normal. Have a play around, I took the rear wheels off recently to check brake pad levels and it the brake assembly looked normal to me.

Not sure,I got scared to mention this subject again becuase someone thought I was making bearing discs up. This might have some info

Straight forward. Remove nut and with some help from the trusted wooden hammer you just pop them off. Caliper has to be removed and don't forget you'll need to push the piston in as its self adjusting for handbrake. Don't take both off at the same time as you will popout the piston on the other caliper. But that's just basic mechanical stuff...

And yes, the bearing is inside the rear disc.
