Gordon F Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 Is it true that the UK calipers / discs foul the j-spec backplates?? If so, what is the most popular 'fix'?? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 Cut them off with an angle grinder. Being careful not to slice through your hub/strut of course. Nathan TDI PLC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 I cut through mine with a good pair if snips and a little effort and lots of swearing:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 I unbolted the retaining nuts, swiveled it round until I could cut out the smallest section with tin snips then twisted it out. The rears are riveted in place. I got around this with a hammer and chisel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
