while your at it change the brake hoses to braided ones :nod:

give yourself 2 hrs per wheel :)

mel b and i had a laugh doing my brakes

the cat back can be a cnut to replace, plenty of wd40 on the bolts, getting the hangers off are complete pain in the arse, try fairy liquid 1st and if that doesnt work use a hacksaw on the arms :wack:

if its really stuck.. i know a guy very easy to pay, he has a ramp, an acetlyne torch.. makes short work of fitting all of or stuff... any thing stuck solid he just heats and it either comes off with a spanner.. or he just burns the bolt ut

aww, thanks mate but has to be this weekend- MOT on tueday :eek:

who'd have thought a warped brake disc and a wee blow out in the exhaust would cost £600 to fix! :) (well it does when u replace with upgrades anyway!)

ade: whats the score with these braided hoses? didn't think they'd be worth the £50 price tag to be honest :confused:

they make your brakes feel more responsive, no need to pump the brakes at all they make a hell of a difference
