Hi Guys,

Does anyone know what size the torx head is on the brake disc retaining bolts??

Cheers!

I assume this is the one that holds the disc to the hub.
Dunno if this is the correct one but I used a T50 without any difficulty Thumbs Up Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.

Exactly pegleg, I'm looking at getting an impact bit in preparation of changing the discs. Wanted to just get a good quality one of the correct size.

Thanks!

I didn't need an impact Thumbs Up
The rears came off with the help of a screwdriver and a soft mallet. The adjuster seen through a small hole was seized Big Cry Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.

Only after the disc was off Big Cry
The offside was easy, the adjuster wasn't seized.
The nearside was a Censored
Came off complete with the shoes
I don't like bashing hubs, but used a lot of leverage with a long screwdriver. Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.
