Decent Brake Pads


Recommended Posts

At the end of the week I should get chance to swap them around. It's probably better if they are moved to the other side of the pads. I'll remove the coil springs too. Don't know why I left those in.

It will be sooo good to get rid of the rattles. Those ppl that don't have this for whatever reason have no idea have bad it sounds - usually at low speed, in a nice quiet car park, campsite or somewhere - it sounds as though something is really wrong even though its a rattle and nothing more.

It was embarrassing coming from a Range Rover - they're meant to be particularly "sophisticated"!

It's a good idea to swap them around and ditch the coils - they could prevent full pad retraction with newish pads, causing wear and overheating. Set the other way around, the spring ends will still be well clear of the friction material and disc.
