Hey Andy. Do you mean the arb bolts? Yeah they can be stiff. Typically the first one was easy and the second side was stuck. Always how it goes.

Let's hope they are ok. Current ones are dead and my car has been sat for 2 weeks.
It's not a straightforward swap as I need to remove the super pro ball joints to slow these discs to fit as they are slightly different spec to my current ones.
Making a start hopefully this afternoon.

Do they rub on the ball joint? I had that fun and games with an AP Racing kit eons ago. Had to grind the BJs down. Wasn't overly keen on doing that but it didn't cause any issues over 60K miles.
I'm sure they'll work out fine and be insanely powerful :grin:

Yeah that’s right. They have already been ground a little for the old discs but these have a wider pad depth, 61 vs 55. I He. A feeling this job is gonna be a pain in the ass but fingers crossed.
