Gridlock Mikey

Is it obvious, i.e wheels off, clips out, old out, new in, clips on wheel on away ya go?

Is there anything peculiar to Scoobs that I need to know?

Cheers

It's pretty much as you'd expect. It's easier to retract the cylinder with the old pads in, then just undo the bottom tie bolt, rotate the sliding caliper upwards and pull the old pads out.

If you're not fitting new shims it's probably a good idea to take them out, and give them and the caliper a good clean out before reassembling, but beyond that there's nothing likely to cause problems.

The only ickle problem I had was the new pads had a bit too much paint on the backing so the little lugs were a bit tight in the caliper. I had to file a very small amount off for them too fit properly.

I also used a wooden stick to push the piston back into the caliper enough to get the new pads over the disc.

Have some brake cleaner and a a wire brush at handy to give them a proper clean. Use some coppa-slip (aka copper grease) on the caliper bolt threads and wheel nuts to make it easier removing them the next time around.

Other than that it's pi$$ easy.
