  1. Note quite all sorted. I managed to kick the tray where I had all the nut and bolts. I found most of them apart from one nut from the track rod end. Does someone know what size it is so I can get one localy? Cheers Jack
  2. I've received the disk and the near side was done within 1/2 hours not issue at all. But the off side is much more problematic. It's not the four bolts holding the disk on it's the vertical link which is not moving. Anyone around OXford has a press? Jack
  3. On the track I was careful to take a "slow" lap before going for a rest. The lap at Abingdon is short, so maybe I didn't allow enough time for them to cool down enough. I knew not to put the handbrake on It was my first proper track day, all part of the learning curve Jack
  4. Cheers All I've ordered a new set from Canley Classic. Should be arriving tomorrow. I assume the only way to get the bolt of is the old mix of brut force, heat and penetrating liquid? Any other tips? Jack
  5. Thanks I'll measure them later on this week. What is the best / cost effective option to replaces the disk? The pads have are barely worn, is it ok to re use them with new disk? Jack
