Salvage from the Wreckage

By NickMogToo

Them’s the brakes

After the first Saturday tennis in a long time, it was time tackle the mini brakes. Not too bad in the end, although I did manage to drop the wheel, trapping my fingers between the rim and the hub. Why do cars have wheel bolts now instead of wheel studs and nuts? The trick was to remove the discs and then bolt the calipers back on - this held it firmly enough to use the cylinder-screwing in tool.

Only one of the pads was worn. Looks like the rear o/s calliper is dragging a bit. I’ll probably need to replace it before too long.

Lovely sunny day, though.
